Dead and Laid to Rest Songtext
von Cold Chisel

How many torments, I′ve had in my time?
Was looking for love, but I was too blind
I stepped in the circle, to play out the game
But all that I offered, it turned out the same

A little bit more, a little bit less
Deeper in love, deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can't live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
I know the truth, is dead and laid to rest

No sound but the river, that runs from my heart
Flows from a mountain, then tears me apart
Will there come a season, that I will not weep?
I prayed like you wanted, but it all felt too cheap


A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love, deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without my feeling, I just can′t live
I wake and remember that no one is blessed
I know the truth, is dead and laid to rest

And sometimes I'm frightened alone in the dark
But you know I can't hide it
I′ve been waiting until the hurting starts

A little bit more, a little bit less
Deeper in love, deeper in debt
I look at the stars, I just can′t give
Without your feeling I just can't live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
I know the truth, is dead and laid to rest


I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
Say I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
I know the truth
Babe, I know the truth now
Dead and laid to rest
I know, I know, I know, I know the truth
Dead and laid to rest
