[Verse 1]
It's been a bad, bad week with the Devil in town
And all my friends on the floor
There's been a flood and a fire and break of the plague
And all the X's on the doors
But then the golden fruit at the top of the hill came a-rollin' to my feet
Oh heavens, I can't lie, Father, what can I say? Well, it just tasted so sweet
God, give me more

[Verse 2]
It's been a bad, bad week with the Devil in town
And all my friends on the floor
I got a feeling that it hasn't even begun
We've been abandoned, we've been moored
But then the golden fruit at the top of the hill, well, it whispered out my name
Oh heavens, I can't lie, Father, what can I say? I will never be the same
God, give me more

[Chorus]
Lay, lay me down
Lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down
Lay me down

[Verse 3]
It's been a bad, bad week with the Devil in town
The broken lives along the floor
Oh well, baby Jesus save me tonight
The angels falling by the score
He's raising Hell tonight from the breaking of dawn until the sun falls to the sea
Oh Heaven help us now, Saints and lovers above, will the angels rescue me?
God, give me hope
[Chorus]
Lay, lay me down
Lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down
Lay me down
Save me now
Lay me down
Heaven help us, Mother Mary, save us, we've been found
Lay me down
Lay me down
Woah, oh

[Bridge]
Heaven help us
Heaven help us now

[Chorus]
Lay, lay me down
Lay me down
God is broken, everyone is reaching for the crown
Lay me down
Lay me down
Save me now
Lay me down
Heaven help us, Mother Mary, save us, we've been found
Lay me down
Lay me down
