Lay Down

Lyrics

We were so close, there was no room We bled inside each other's wounds And we all caught the same disease And we all sang our songs of peace Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown Oh raise the candles high 'Cause if you don't, we could stand black against the night Oh raise them high again 'Cause if you do, we could stand dry against the rain Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown We were so close there was no room We bled inside each other's wounds We all caught the same disease We all sang our songs of peace Some came to sing some came to pray Some came to keep the night away Oh raise the candles high 'Cause if you don't, we could stand black against the night Oh raise them high again 'Cause if you do, we can stand dry against the rain Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white bird smile up at the ones who stand and frown Lay down, lay down, let it all down Let your white birds smile up at the ones who stand and frown
