Play Dead

Bjork

darling stop confusing me

with your wishful thinking

hopeful enbraces

don't you understand?

i have to go through this

i belong to here where

no-one cares and no-one loves

no light no air to live in

a place called hate

the city of fear



i play dead

it stops the hurting

i play dead

and hurting stops



it's sometimes just like sleeping

curling up inside my private tortures

i nestle into pain

hug suffering

caress every ache



i play dead

it stops the hurting
