Play Dead Songtext

von Him

"Play Dead"

A moth into a butterfly
And a lie
Into the sweetest truth
I'm so afraid of life

I try to call your name
But I'm silenced
By the fear of dying in your heart
Once again

I see the seasons changing
And in the heart of this autumn
I fall
With the leaves from the trees

I play dead
To hide my heart
Until the world gone dark
Fades away

I cry
Like god cries the rain
And I'm just one step away
From the end of today

I see the reasons changing
And in the warmth of the past
I crawl
Scorched by the shame

I play dead
To hide my heart
Until the world gone dark
Fades away
I stay dead
Until you veil my scars
And say goodbye to fate
Before it's too late
Before it's too late

I play dead
To hide my heart
Until the world gone dark
Fades away
I stay dead
Until you veil my scars
And say goodbye to fate
I play dead
To hide my heart
Until the world gone dark
Fades away
Before it's too late
