Lay Me Down Songtext
von Last Hounds

If the stars could talk, they′d say all sorts
You may know my life outside these makeshift walls
I'm a far gone mess, I′ve left the world to guess
Gotta keep my mouth shut, lest I confess
And now I breathe and it all slips out
Now you're peering through the window with an open mouth
To catch a lie that I felt so high
But behind the window pane is a grown man's cry

Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground
Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground


Take this burning heart, tear it all apart
Stick another needle, take me back to the start
My blood runs black and then runs cold
Burn me up and throw me in before I lose control
I′m drowning now, I′m drowning now
The weight round my ankles are pulling me down
I'm going down, I′m going now
Let's take a swim but I′m not sure how

Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground
Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground

Let me speak, let me speak
Oh, these words, they need to breathe
If we fall then we all become what we fear we need
Don't talk to your own shame and lock down
This time I won′t go far out
Lay me down
I'm gonna lay me down
I said lay me down
Or lay me down

Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground
Lay me down
I deserve to hit the ground
