Play Dead Songtext
Preemptive attack as a matter of fact
Let no one escape, leave nothing intact
Eye for an eye they might try to scratch
They won′t stand a chance
There'll be no rematch
Just keep on going, drive over them
I saw a boy throw a stone, I think
Drive over them
Rip apart the walls
Blast away all running civilians
Then try to cover it up, but it can′t be done
'Cause everything's painted in red
Yeah - starting to show All the things you don′t want us to know
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play dead
Still, lie still
And try not to breathe
Scorched the earth, the scars run deep
An infected tattoo, an oasis of blood
Do you expect us to look the other way
When nothing is more obvious
And everything′s painted in red
Yeah - starting to show
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play
Silence - nothing but silence here
Tears fertilizing the sand
Still nothing is growing
Silence
And we sleep under stars with the roar
Still fresh in our memory
Remembering a time
When everything was fine
Strike them hard, backstabbing ally
Weaken and starve them
With unreasonable sanctions
Then try to sell that with limited resources
They've developed new weapons
Of mass destruction
Trojan horse of Kuwait worked out well
Sent Glaspie to smile and Nayirah to cry
Do you expect us to look the other way
No nothing is more obvious
Yes everything′s painted in red
Yeah - starting to show
All the things you don't want us to know
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play dead
Let no one escape, leave nothing intact
Eye for an eye they might try to scratch
They won′t stand a chance
There'll be no rematch
Just keep on going, drive over them
I saw a boy throw a stone, I think
Drive over them
Rip apart the walls
Blast away all running civilians
Then try to cover it up, but it can′t be done
'Cause everything's painted in red
Yeah - starting to show All the things you don′t want us to know
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play dead
Still, lie still
And try not to breathe
Scorched the earth, the scars run deep
An infected tattoo, an oasis of blood
Do you expect us to look the other way
When nothing is more obvious
And everything′s painted in red
Yeah - starting to show
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play
Silence - nothing but silence here
Tears fertilizing the sand
Still nothing is growing
Silence
And we sleep under stars with the roar
Still fresh in our memory
Remembering a time
When everything was fine
Strike them hard, backstabbing ally
Weaken and starve them
With unreasonable sanctions
Then try to sell that with limited resources
They've developed new weapons
Of mass destruction
Trojan horse of Kuwait worked out well
Sent Glaspie to smile and Nayirah to cry
Do you expect us to look the other way
No nothing is more obvious
Yes everything′s painted in red
Yeah - starting to show
All the things you don't want us to know
Talking head
Yeah - shaking us so
As all we can do is play dead
