Play Like God

I was young

I was cold but not insane

I had one good friend

It was a voice without a name

And so here we are

Same need and same mistake

But it could be yours

You see it could be even be yours

I said I've done things

That left me hurt and ashamed

She said all I need

Is a place to hide the pain

She said don't trust dreams

Because dreams will break your heart

I said little girls play in the house of shame

Some of us play like God

Play like God,

Save my soul

Play like God

I know that God don't live here in my heart

She said touch my soul

I've never touched someone so cold

She said touch my heart

I've never touched something so old

She said play like God

And then you can play with me

I moved underground

And caught the isolation blues

Sound familiar?

I said kiss my face

I've seen things you'll never see

She said kiss my arse

I've been everything I need

She said memories

Are only there to make you bleed

I said little girls play in big boys games

Some of us play but cry

Play like God

Save my soul

Play like God

I know that God don't live here in my world

Where do we belong?

She said I've been sick

But then no-one's clean for long

She said pray for me

Like God, I've fucked the world

I said little girls play with the big disease

Some of us play with you
