I've played your game
|
And I've played it well.
|
I'll be another fool
|
To hang upon your wall.
|
I laid my heart out
|
Like an open book.
|
It's a simple thing and don't take much
|
To crack it open and bleed.
|
Lay me down.
|
Lay me down when you're through with me.
|
Lay me down.
|
Let me bleed when you're through with me.
|
Don't let me think you're wrong,
|
Just let me fall down.
|
I'll pick myself up again.
|
It's the kindest thing you can do for me,
|
So, woman, won't you lay me down.
|
|
I lied to myself.
|
Tried to believe in you.
|
But it's hard to rely on the ghost of someone you hardly even knew
|
You bring things out
|
Just to bring me down.
|
Then you twist them about and shove 'em in my face
|
Til my eyes can't see any good.
|
Yeah!
