Lyrics
Lay Me Down
Lay me down, let me sleep.
Lay me down, let me dream.
Lay me down, let me be.
Lay me down, I need to freeze.
You know my world is burning.
You know my heart is breaking free.
You know I hear your calling.
You know my heart is crumbling here.
Lay me down, I need to be.
Lay me down, don't curse me.
Lay me down, don't hate me.
Lay me down, I'm breaking free!
I sense your heart is aching.
I hear your tears are broken free!
You know I hear your calling.
You know my heart is crumbling here!
Lay me down, let me sleep.
Lay me down, let me dream.
Lay me down, let me be, let me be.
Lay me down, I need to... I need to freeze.
You know my world is burning.
You know my heart is breaking free.
You know I hear your calling.
You know my heart is crumbling here.
Lay me down, I'm getting deep.
Lay me down, don't carry me.
Lay me down, I need to freeze.
Lay me down, set me free.
