Passive Lyrics

[00:44.93] Dead as dead can be
[00:47.88] My doctor tells me
[00:50.36] But I just can't believe him
[00:53.02] Ever the optimistic one
[00:56.57] I'm sure of your ability to become
[01:05.23] My perfect enemy
[01:07.97] Wake up
[01:10.60] And face me
[01:13.28] Don't play dead
[01:16.03] 'Cause maybe
[01:18.97] Someday I will walk away and say
[01:25.36] You disappoint me
[01:28.01] Maybe you're better off this way
[01:33.09] Leaning over you here
[01:35.93] Cold and catatonic
[01:39.22] I catch a brief reflection
[01:41.67] What you could and might have been
[01:45.32] It's your right and your ability
[01:50.63] To become my perfect enemy
[01:55.34] Wake up (why can't you)
[01:58.73] And face me (come on now)
[02:01.39] Don't play dead (don't play dead)
[02:04.59] 'Cause maybe (because maybe)
[02:07.29] Someday (someday I'll) I will walk away and say
[02:13.46] You disappoint me
[02:16.06] Maybe you're better off this way
[02:21.23] Maybe you're better off this way
[02:26.84] Maybe you're better off this way
[02:32.24] Maybe you're better off this way
[02:37.72] You're better off this
[02:40.97] You're better off this
[02:43.88] Maybe you're better off
[02:46.10] Wake up (why can't you)
[02:48.44] And face me (come on now)
[02:51.00] Don't play dead (don't play dead)
[02:53.67] 'Cause maybe (because maybe)
[02:56.76] Someday I'll (someday I'll) walk away and say
[03:02.57] You fucking disappoint me
[03:05.47] Maybe you're better off this way
[03:08.33] Go ahead and play dead
[03:10.70] I know that you can hear this
[03:13.73] Go ahead and play dead
[03:16.50] Why can't you turn and face me?
[03:19.02] Why can't you turn and face me?
[03:22.03] Why can't you turn and face me?
[03:24.34] Why can't you turn and face me?
[03:27.34] You fucking disappoint me
[03:30.21] Passive aggressive bullshit
[03:33.06] Passive aggressive bullshit
[03:35.88] Passive aggressive bullshit
[03:38.56] Passive aggressive bullshit
