Play Dead Lyrics by Armen Paul

2021

There were clothes on the bed and a note at the scene
Blood on the walls and the white of your sheets
A coke glass half empty and letters you gave me to keep
Looking for an out this time
And I can't find it
Body bag and lips zip-tied
I'm done with trying, whoa-oh
We've been walking on egg shells
Lying from friends
My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest
Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?
If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead
X2
You'll never find me like 6am lightning or whispers stuck between your teeth
Lines of mourning that morning that core in the sobbing
Convinced I might even believe
Calling out your name with mine, a ghost in hiding
Chills are running up my spine
Can you feel them rising, whoa-oh
We've been walking on egg shells
Lying from friends
My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest
Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?
If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead
X2
Swirl in silence, sound in silence, I can barely breath
Making something out of nothing, that's so typical of me
X2
We've been walking on egg shells
Lying from friends
My words are tattooed on my tongue and my chest
Why linger like rumours, pretend like we're friends?
If we can't play it cool, I'd rather play dead
X2
