[Verse 1]
You let me in, 'cause after all
It seemed like the right thing to do, oh-oh
I close my eyes and let you fall
I wonder, what you could possibly know
About breaking down, that I don't
It's been a while since I begged for
Anything, but now I want more, so

[Chorus]
Lay me down, I'm lonely, oh-oh
You don't understand me
You never even tried to anyway
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
I hear you say it's not the same
I'm sorry, it's just something I just can't explain
So shut your mouth and hold me close
We both know it's better than being alone
I don't mind killing time
As long as I can't see it in your eyes

[Chorus]
Lay me down, I'm lonely
Oh
You don't understand me
You never even tried
[Bridge]
If wanting you's wrong
Then I'm wrong, I'll admit it
Time after time you'll realize
You don't mean it

[Chorus]
Lay me down, I'm lonely
Yeah, oh-oh
You don't understand me
And you never even tried
I'm sorry, lay down
I'm lonely, lay me down
You don't understand me
And never even tried to anyway
You let me in 'cause after all
It seemed like the right thing to do
