Lay Down Songtext
von The Devil and the Almighty Blues

Lay down on the ice-cold ground
Finally, I′m homeward-bound
Eyes open so I can see the world has lost its hold
Lay down on the ice-cold ground
Finally, I'm homeward-bound
Eyes open so I can see the world has lost its hold on me

Lay down in the light of dawn
I′ve done whatever to carry on
Last minutes, one last day, finally, nothing more
Lay down in the light of dawn
I've done whatever to carry on
Last minutes, one last day, finally, nothing more to say


All your days had gone
No more days will come
For a short time, the world was a light
Now that time has gone
All your days have gone
No more days will come
For a short time, the world was a light
Now that's all gone

Lay down, listen to the sound of the whole world coming down
Ashes will fall like snow and time has come
Lay down, listen to the sound of the whole world coming down
Ashes will fall like snow and time has come to let go

All your days had gone
No more days will come
For a short time, the world was alight
Now that time has gone
All your days had gone
No more days will come
For a short time, the world was a light
Now that′s all gone

Lay down, let darkness take you, the ferryman sees you through
You have paid the cost, now look back on all
Lay down, let darkness take you, the ferryman sees you through
You have paid the cost, now look back on all you′ve lost
