Playing Dead Lyrics by Night Sins

New Grave

2012

Every word you said
And every thorn left on the rose
Lay idle in bed lines disappearing up your nose
Like the flies buzz round overhead
And the girls on the dance floor playing dead
A light that shines in every open door
All my time left waiting wanting more
When we go. we go alone
When we go. alone
Stay awake in disbelief
Living in this fantasy
All the things I never wanted to know
And everything that comes back to me
Back to me
The tears they start to run
Tighter tighter tighter undone
Like a fuck in the evening for a bit of a thrill
An entire life of time to kill
Pull down the shades, shut out the light
No reason for this season tonight
All the pages are filled with this
All the pages are filled with times I won't miss
Wake me up
We go alone
Wake me up
Alone
Stay awake in disbelief
Living in this fantasy
Fantasy
All the things I never wanted to know
And everything that comes back to me
Another thought of nevermore
No light that shines, no open door
All the things I never wanted to know
And everything that comes back to me
Comes back to me
