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
