I Play Dead

I play dead again, it just might stop before the end if I pretend

You may not see the pain I'm in so close to me

Can't tell what I'm supposed to be, don't stop to breathe

Can't bear to think what you might see this tourniquet

These blessed hands around my head, so I can keep fromBleeding, I've got to find a way to stop before it starts

Finding it's way through my veins right to my heart

I never thought it something everyone could see

And it kills within meBleeding, I've got to find a way to stop before it starts

Finding it's way through my veins right to my heart

I never thought it something everyone could see

And it kills within meI won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erased

I won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erasedIt's in my head, I can't forget what you once said

The words I read, the fractured soul that I can't mend

Right here with me, killing the void I used to be

Remembering through fading sparks of memory

Two broken hands lift seven wounds and fight to stand

To keep the lungs fromCaving, I've got to find a way to stop before it starts

Finding it's way through my veins right to my heart

I never thought it something everyone could see

And it kills within meCaving, I've got to find a way to stop before it starts

Finding it's way through my veins right to my heart

I never thought it something everyone could see

And it kills within meI won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erased

I won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erasedTurning it's moving escaping right through me

I care not I bleed not for you I believe notI play dead, I play dead

I play dead, I play deadI won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erased

I won't, I won't leave without a trace

I won't be erasedI won't

I won't
