Play Dead - Indiana

Why can’t you see this?

I’m slipping away

My courage depleted

My heart stops beating

If I’m still, do you notice me

That I’m cold to the pain?

Short of breath, I take my release

Put to death by my game

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead

And I’m so wasted I can’t take it, so I play dead

As I lay me down to sleep

As I lay me down

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead

At one with the darkness

A moment from heartless

I hear your voice

You kiss me, I flatline

Then you bring me to life

If I’m still, do you notice me

That I’m cold to the pain?

Short of breath, I take my release

Put to death by my game

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead

And I’m so wasted I can’t take it, so I play dead

As I lay me down to sleep

As I lay me down

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead

Awaken me

From the silence that’s in my head

Awaken me

Or should I lay here and just play dead?

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead

And I’m so wasted I can’t take it, so I play dead

As I lay me down to sleep

As I lay me down

And I’m so tired of seeing red, so I play dead
