Dead Language Songtext
von Jasmine Thakral

You say you′re an open book babe
I say you're written in a cold dead language
You say that you′re the type to stick around
But I'm easy to break like a forgotten habit

I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend

Now I′m a crumbled up ticket in your back pocket
Just the opening act to your show
And we never made sense
I′m not one of your poems
I don't even sit in the rhythm of your life


I was ready to read right to the end
But I′m just a sucker
For when you play pretend

I guess you wanted me to change
I'm just a puzzle piece that gets discarded away
And I don′t even recognise myself
I smoothed down all my edges
Just to fit on your shelf

I was ready to read right to the end
But I'm just a sucker
For when you play pretend

It′s open and shut now
You turned into someone I only occasionally knew
We're open and shut now
I guess you'll be finding someone else soon


But I was ready to read right to the end
But I′m just a sucker
For when you play pretend
