Every day you counted on that never added up
Every voice that's telling you that you'll never be enough
Every lie and every thing you wish you'd never done

Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me

‘Cause I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting
I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting

When you lock the doors up and there's no more getting in
When you're in the water and forgotten how to swim
When your hands they get too heavy
I will take the weight you're carrying

Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me

‘Cause I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting
I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting
When the bombs are falling and you need someone to blame

Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me

Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me
Lay it on me

‘Cause I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting
I would rather take your pain
Than to watch you hurting

Every day you counted on that never added up
