Lay Me Down

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I know you thought that you could bury me Put me six feet down beneath your guilty pleas Oh, you held your shovel proud You laid me down as you spoke my praise Digging foot by foot you dug my grave Oh, you'll never lay me down [Refrain] (Lay me down) Oh, lay me down (Lay me down) Oh, lay me down now (Oh, oh) You'll never lay me down (Lay me down) Oh, lay me down (Lay me down) Oh, lay me down now (Oh, oh) No, you'll never lay me down [Verse 2] I see your feet and they're covered in mud I see your hands, they're all stained from the blood Oh, I forgive you for your sins I hope you feel better now that you are free Now that you tried to kill, spite and feed off me Oh, I wish you well, my friend [Pre-Chorus] Oh, lay me down Oh, lay me down No, you'll never lay me down Oh, lay me down Oh, lay me down, yeah You'll never lay me down [Chorus] You can't kill me, I'm already dead I grow stronger with your gun to my head See, I've lived and died a thousand times I'll climb out again Lay me down You'll never lay me down Oh no, you'll never lay me down [Bridge] Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, down Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down [Chorus] You can't kill me, I'm already dead And I grew stronger with your gun to my head See, I've lived and died a thousand times I'll climb out again Lay me down You'll never lay me down You can't kill me, I'm already dead I grow stronger with your gun to my head See, I've lived and died a thousand times I'll climb out again Lay me down You'll never lay me down [Outro] Oh no, you'll never lay me down Oh no, you'll never lay me down
