- Playing Dead Lyrics / with translationsI am playing dead
While the fragments of my song
Are waving in the air
As if they would leave me forever
I open up as wide as the sky
Reaches out to embrace the blue
I gather the hooks that I sunk in your side
When I walked alongside you
I am reaching out to touch the void
Where tremendous dreams go missing
I try to mend what got destroyed
With a beat and a melody kissing
Meandering downhill
I am running with the rain
I have just swallowed the bitterest pill
That wasn't against the pain
I am playing dead I am playing dead
No more flailing no more
While the fragments of my song
Are waving in the air
As if they would leave me forever
I open up as wide as the sky
Reaches out to embrace the blue
I gather the hooks that I sunk in your side
When I walked alongside you
I am reaching out to touch the void
Where tremendous dreams go missing
With a beat and a melody kissing
Meandering downhill
I am running with the rain
I have just swallowed the bitterest pill
That wasn't against the pain
I am playing dead I am playing dead
No more flailing no more
