Play Dead

[Verse 1] Took my heart a couple years ago You took my heart, but you don't know where you left it I got yours somewhere deep below I was the keeper of the jewels, but I got kind of careless And now the cracks are showin' A chasm on the floor we pretend not to see, yeah I know the pressure's on We avoid it like the plague when staring at the ceiling [Pre-Chorus] We're just two cowards hiding from the fight We let it kill us slowly every night, ah [Chorus] We play dead in the afternoon Make sure the evenings are quiet too In the mornings, get up quick and leave the tension in the room 'Cause if we don't talk If we don't talk It won't hurt like it's supposed to do [Verse 2] Ignorance is bliss But I'd be more relaxed on a bed made of needles Can't go on like this When sleeping in her bed feels wrong, feels lethal I don't wanna be the one With blood on my hands Can't stomach it either It's a relentless dance [Pre-Chorus] We're just two cowards hiding from the fight We let it kill us slowly every night, ah [Chorus] We play dead in the afternoon Make sure the evenings are quiet too In the mornings, get up quick and leave the tension in the room 'Cause if we don't talk If we don't talk It won't hurt like it's supposed to do [Bridge] The silence isn't golden The silence isn't golden The silence isn't golden [Chorus] We play dead in the afternoon Make sure the evenings are quiet too In the mornings, get up quick and leave the tension in the room 'Cause if we don't talk If we don't talk It won't hurt like it's supposed to do
