Demon Hunter - I Play Dead Lyrics






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 from...

Bleeding.
I've got to find a way to stop before it starts.
Finding its way through my veins right to my heart.
I never thought it something everyone could see.
And it kills within me.

[CHORUS:]
I won't, I won't leave without a trace.
I won't be erased.

It'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 from..

Caving.
I've got to find a way to stop before it starts.
Finding its way through my veins right to my heart.
I never thought it something everyone could see.
And it kills within me.

[CHORUS]

Turning. It's moving. Escaping right through me.
I care not. I bleed not. For you I believe not.
I play dead.

    3:30 always gives me goosebumps

  7. G.... ....

    G.... ....

    Guilherme

    a.... ....

    lol why would that matter

    a.... ....

    @Mollie Franks-Jones It doesn't really.

  9. J.... R....

    this is the first song i heard by them and i've been hooked ever since! great band with a kick ass logo! i plan on getting their logo tattooed on my arm

    J.... R....

    According to the Bible.. tattoos are taboo. So, if you don't want your marked body part to be amputated in the Afterlife, because you simply do not understand scripture.. then simply don't get marked. "It" was sick that way.. but I AM here now.. to save shit like you.

    J.... R....

    Xrcst...how about you dont force your religion on others? Its their body, they can do whatever the hell they want to with it.

    J.... R....

    @XRCST The Bible also says to stone the gays. Just cuz the Bible says to do it doesn't mean you should

  10. R.... L....

    This takes me back to an interesting time.

    R.... L....

    Same here being 16 going to school on my bycicle being bullied and wishing there was that person I wouldn't leave without. Now 8 years later I found her haha.

  12. J.... M....

    I can relate to this song and album so freaking much!!!!!!!!!

  13. C.... K....

    i like this better than most metal and screamo out there!!

    C.... K....

    scream sucks dude. it pains me that this band is even labeled as metalcore. to me that's a big injustice they are so many different genres..

    C.... K....

    Well Demon hunter one of the best bands who can scream but also has soft chorus also they have bunch of softer songs as you probably know . Like I am a stone Carry me down Troat is open grave think its called. Dead flowers driving nails heartstrings come undone some of there softer songs. This song amazing and it rocks.

  14. S.... K....

  15. D.... .....

    "If I pretend you may not see the pain I'm in."
    Accurate.

  16. M.... ....

    notice the hardcore religious nuts steer clear of this one...

    M.... ....

    MichiganThunder
    Um... Actually I'm religious and this song is awesome to me.

    M.... ....

    @Krysten Gorum You are claiming to be a "hardcore religious nut" because that is what his sentence stated.

    M.... ....

    @Krysten Gorum He meant people who think all metal music is devil-worshiping

  17. K.... ....

    I play dead all the time. It's a part of my job.
    I remain at my wit's end....4 obvious reasons.
