You take a walk to the river of pain
Curse the heat, but it might have been rain
It’s a street that you knew too soon
You’re so tired, so stop
Drink from the moon, you gotta…

Lay down, lay day down

Oh, it’s a relief now
You gotta believe somehow
Look up at the trees, leaves blowing
Storm passing by and the stars melt to shadows
Oh, mars, a ruby in your hair
Rushing angels fill the air, singing lay down

You take a sip from the well of joy
Tastes so sweet, like meeting a boy
You feel a flush like a little girl
Stay right here at the edge of the world

You been alone to the promised land
You got the keys in an open hand

You take a walk to the river of pain
Curse the heat, but it might have been the rain
It’s a street that you knew too soon
You’re so tired, so stop
Drink from the moon, you gotta…

Lay down, lay day down

Oh, it’s a relief now
You gotta believe somehow
Look up at the trees, leaves blowing
Storm passing by and the stars melt to shadows
Oh, mars, a ruby in your hair
Rushing angels fill the air, singing lay down

You take a sip from the well of joy
Tastes so sweet, like meeting a boy
You feel a flush like a little girl
Stay right here at the edge of the world

You been alone to the promised land
You got the keys in an open hand
Your heart beats love as the sun comes ‘round
You wanna be free?
Got to lay it down...
