Play Dead

Darling, stop confusing me

With your wishful thinking

Hopeful embrace

Don't you understand?

I have to go through this, I belong to here

Where no one cares and no one lives

No light, no air to live in

A place called Hate, The City of Fear

I play dead, it stops the hurt

I play dead and the hurt stops

It's sometimes just like sleeping

Curling up inside my private tortures

I nestle into pain

Hug suffering, caress every ache

I play dead, it stops the hurt

I play dead, it stops the hurt

I play dead, it stops the hurt

I play dead, it stops the hurt
