Play Dead Lyrics

And boys are so cold
They speak without meaning
The only time they talk is in their sleepAnd girls are a bore
Their touch without feeling
Their secret's always far too grim to keepAnd up until now
You've lived in their shadows
Trying hard to please themBut they'll never change
As long as they're breathingThinking hurts and thoughts don't rhyme
To those of us who've never tried
To find a face behind our lipstick smilesAnd as our pretty faces die
Our broken hearts will wonder why
The make-up just won't hide the scars of timeAnd boys are so cruel
So don't let them find you tonight
And girls are so vain
So put them behind you tonightI'll cast you a spell
A magic where everyone plays dead forever
And after tonight they'll never remind youThinking hurts and thoughts don't rhyme
To those of us who've never tried

To find a face behind our lipstick smilesAnd as our pretty faces die
Our broken hearts will wonder why
The make-up just won't hide the scars of timeThinking hurts and thoughts don't rhyme
To those of us who've never tried
To find a face behind our lipstick smilesAnd as our pretty faces die
Our broken hearts will wonder why
The make-up just won't hide the scars of time
