“Dead as dead can be,” my doctor tells me
But I just can´t believe him, ever the optimistic one
I´m sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don´t play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you´re better off this way

Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It´s your right and your ability
To become…my perfect enemy…

Wake up (we´ll catch you) and face me (come one now),
Don´t play dead (don´t play dead)
Cause maybe (because maybe)
Someday I´ll (someday I´ll) walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you´re better off this way

Maybe you´re better off this way
Maybe you´re better off this way
Maybe you´re better off this way
You´re better of this; you´re better off this;
Maybe you´re better off!

Wake up (can´t you) and face me (come on now),
Don´t play dead (don´t play dead)
Cause maybe (because maybe)
Someday I´ll (someday I´ll) walk away and say, “You fucking disappoint me!”
Maybe you´re better off this way

Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
Why can´t you turn and face me?
Why can´t you turn and face me?
Why can´t you turn and face me?
Why can´t you turn and face me?
You fucking disappoint me!

Passive aggressive bullshit
