Travellin' down our different roads
|
Tryin' hard to leave the load
|
We take it there but we can't let go
|
It's so hard to lay it down
|
|
Back in Eden we were tried
|
Found ourselves dissatisfied
|
Seeking wisdom she denied
|
Tryin' hard to lay it down
|
|
Lay it down brother, lay it down
|
So hard to lay it down
|
|
Hide in me, confide in me
|
Don't you think it's time to be
|
Everything we tried to be
|
You and me should lay it down
|
|
So speak to me, be unashamed
|
There's no need in playing games
|
After all we're all the same
|
Tryin' hard to lay it down
|
|
Lay it down brother, lay it down
|
So hard to lay it down
|
|
Wish my words could make it well
|
Wish that I could break the shell
|
Take us from our self-made hell
|
Find a way to lay it down
|
|
Burdened by the things I've learned
|
Hurting 'cause I'm too concerned
|
Nonetheless I confess I yearn
|
To find a way to lay it down
|
|
Lay it down brother, lay it down
|
So hard to lay it down
|
Lay it down brother, lay it down
|
So hard to lay it down...
