lyrics
HELL IS A PLACE (feat. The Paper Choir)
(music / lyrics: Thom Kunz)
Hell is a place dressed in a smile.
The tears on her face,
A desert moon sky.
I sit in this hole
When daylight is gone.
Thoughts bleed me dry.
Words leave me numb.
Do you want to play ‘make believe’?
Do you think I’m naïve?
And do you forget about me,
When you lie and deceive?
All you’ve taken from me…
It crawls up my skin,
The things we’ve never said.
Hell is a place,
In the warmth of our bed.
And while I’m away,
You’re voice fills my head.
Hell is a place,
Where love finds an end.
Hell is a place.
When will they come?
Footsteps are creeping.
I’m sleeping. I’m sleeping.
Here in the storm.
A gun on my knee.
Taking my aim,
You’re the face that I see.
Do you want to play ‘make believe’?
Do you think I’m naïve?
And do you forget about me,
When you lie and deceive?
All you’ve taken from me…
Crawl through the flames.
The words we never said.
Hell is a place,
In the warmth of our bed.
Cool as an angel,
Warm like the dead.
Hell is a place,
Where loves finds an end.
Heaven’s a place in the hell of your head, I said…
I don’t want to play ‘make believe’?
But I think you’re naïve.
I hope you forget about me,
All the love you received
All you’ve taken from me…
It cuts like a song
And leaves you for dead.
And Hell is the place
Where the heart can’t defend.
This paper brain
Will learn to transcend.
If hell is the place,
Where loves finds an end.
