Passive
written by Danny Lohner, Maynard James Keenan, Trent Reznor, and Billy Howerdel

"Dead as dead can be," the 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.

So, wake up and face me.
Don't play dead cuz 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.

But 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?
You fucking disappoint me.
Passive aggressive bullshit.

I would just like to say that I love Maynard and Trent. They make my music world go 'round.
