Lay Me Down

The sun was a flaming death star On the day you were conceived The sky shattered like a sheet of glass And the waves were like mountains And the mountains swallowed themselves Fish crawled out from the boiling oceans Birds fell from the sky - bloated with their song Trees felled themselves And all the moon bugs in the long grass were buzzing And all of this you shall inherit As far as you can see All of this is yours I am hanging by the wire I can't get much higher I think we misunderstood God's intentions are good I am wading through the mire And the world's on fire This time it ended for good Like they said it would Lay me down I've got no end Lay me down My only friend This leads nowhere Still I pretend Lay me down Just like God meant I had a dream about us where We were two halves of a worm Then I woke and you were there Telling me nothing was wrong Well ain't that just like us To destroy the things we love Then you come back to me You walk in and the clouds burst! Lay me down I've got no end Lay me down My only friend This leads nowhere Still I pretend Lay me down Just like God meant You're in the sun On my brain In my head I lost my way Lay me down I've got no end Lay me down My only friend This leads nowhere Still I pretend Lay me down Just like God meant Oh no, oh no Don't fall away Oh no, oh no Don't fall away Oh no, oh no Don't fall away Don't fall away Don't fall away
