Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
We were so close there was no room |
|
We bled inside each other's wounds |
|
We all had caught the same disease |
|
And we all sang the songs of peace |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
So raise candles high 'cause if you don't |
|
We could stay black against the night |
|
Oh, raise them higher again |
|
And if you do, we could stay dry against the rain |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
We were so close, there was no room |
|
We bled inside each other's wounds |
|
We all had caught the same disease |
|
And we all sang the songs of peace |
|
Some came to sing, some came to pray |
|
Some came to keep the dark away |
|
So raise candles high 'cause if you don't |
|
We could stay black against the sky |
|
Oh, oh, raise them higher again |
|
And if you do, we could stay dry against the rain |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
|
Lay down, lay down, lay it all down |
|
Let your white birds smile |
|
At the ones who stand and frown |
