Lay down

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was hoping I was a child But perhaps I am a guide Writing to set you free A guardian of the in-between [Refrain] Lay down Down in the deep where your love comes from Lay down Down in the deep where it feels like all is gone [Verse 2] I remember in your chair By the bed in palliative care You had bled through your jeans A weeping wound, living and dying [Refrain] I just want you to lay down Down in the deep where your love comes from Lay down Down in the deep until you feel like all is gone [Non-Lyrical Interlude] [Interlude] "In that moment 1995 You were the daughter And tonight When I looked up from my notebook There was a scythe in my hand" [Refrain] Lay down Down in the deep where your love comes from Lay down Down in the deep until you feel like all is gone
