Playing Dead


I never thought i would find myself here,
riding the swing set in my mind.
I don’t want to stop living, but i don’t want to go on.
I never saw myself with out you,
yet some how i knew i never had you.
Look at the sky.
The moon is there. Can you see it?
Is it speaking to your heart too?
Do you see the trees dripping blood?
They’re bleeding too.
The mist is gathering,
it’s taking me away.
A quiet kiss,
it covers your lips and sends pain to your heart.
It hurts you to know that i am gone.
Forgetting every fear i close my eyes.
Death is life and you’re dead to me now.
Can you believe you killed me and you’re the one that died?
Everything is fading now.
The stars are leaving the sky.
They where only memories anyway.
My face is painted white and red.
Come lets play dead.
Forget the pain and lie beneath the trees.
We will let them cover us in there bleeding tears.
No one will find us if we hide in our minds.
We don’t have to let anyone in.
But thats right, you’re gone now.
I’ll just stay here looking at the starless sky
and listen to the moon whisper to me.
