Play Dead

I'm feeling sore
This heart and soul calling out from the mold
Bleed ash and bone
After the sun, it's a love we have sold
Time to transpose
I shed my skin
This ghost within haunting all of my mind
But at the core
I have become something greater than more
As I transform
This is the end
Watching the rest of them play dead
If I could pretend
What once was again, and lay down
Watch me on the way down
I feel it still
It's creeping in with every thorn
So cut the cord
We will become something greater than more
This planet will be torn
This is the end
Watching the rest of them play dead
If I could pretend
What once was again, and lay down
Watch me on the way down
The future is yours (change with me now)
What will be born? (time ends for clear)
Pierced by the thorn (bleeding them out)
The future is torn (change with me now)
Change with me now
This is the end
Watching the rest of them play dead
If I could pretend
What once was again, and lay down
Watch me on the way down
