---

Was it already there in the womb

and were we pulled out way too soon?

Were we quiet too long, were we too small

or were we dropped on the floor?

Could it be something we ate,

did they let us stay up too late?

Were there not enough rules,

did we get too much love?

Was it something they taught us in school?

Because inside something bad

is awakened and the evil opens its eyes,

the temper's rising and the house is shaking.

To get out is no longer an option,

these are the deeds of the beast

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead

and we must have lost our minds

'cause we might lose our heads.

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead,

See us pretty brides and the evil we wed.

Oh Lord, we play with the dead!

Was it something we saw on TV,

the films that were gross and obscene?

Is it the clothes and the black-dyed hair

or were we just not aware?

There must have been some dangerous toys

and the music sings of murderous ploys.

And it is not like we did not have a choice,

backward masking gives the Devil a boice.

Because inside something bad

is awakened and the evil opens its eyes,

the temper's rising and the house is shaking.

To get out is no longer an option,

these are the deeds of the beast

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead

and we must have lost our minds

'cause we might lose our heads.

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead,

See us pretty brides and the evil we wed.

Oh Lord, we play with the dead!

To get out is no longer an option,

these are the deeds of the beast

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead

and we must have lost our minds

'cause we might lose our heads.

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead,

See us pretty brides and the evil we wed.

Oh Lord, we play with the dead!

Now we wanna play with the dead,

we lose our heads.

Now we wanna play with the dead,

we lose our heads.

Oh Lord, now we play with the dead!
