Lyrics Dead And Laid To Rest - Cold Chisel

Dead And Laid To Rest

How many torments
I’ve had in my time?
Was looking for love
By I was too blind
I stepped in the circle
To play out the game
But all that I offered
Just turned out the same
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
No sound but a river
That run’s from my heart
It flows from a mountain
Then tears me apart
Will there come a season
That I will not weep?
I prayed like you wanted
But it all felt too cheap
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
Sometimes I am frightened alone in the dark
You know I can’t hide it
I’ve been waiting until the hurting starts
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
