Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down |
Oh, well it’s hard to look deep into your soul |
Not everything you’ll find will be perfect gold |
There are ghosts and demons that hide in the dark |
Oh, they wait till I find love and then they lark |
Oh, they know that my body is no way good enough |
Know that my heart is no way strong enough to bear the sorrow that love brings |
Oh, when I coil in fear, oh, the demons sing |
But it’s a hollow love for a heart with no blood |
In its veins |
Oh, there is no endless devotion |
That is free from the force of erosion |
Oh, if you don’t believe in God |
How can you believe in love? |
When we’re all just matter that will one day scatter |
When peaceful, the world lays us down |
Oh, and finding love is a matter of luck |
Oh, and unsettled lovers move from fuck to fuck |
Oh, and compare their achievements like discussing bereavements |
And compare their abrasions with romantic quotations |
Oh, as peaceful, the world watches down |
Oh, we were blown out of the water |
Oh, and we walk on the feet we have grown |
Oh we were given a heart, at least love was a part |
Oh, and we called it the thing from which our life will spring |
And it gave value to the world that surrounds us |
But we consider the world just for a moment |
Oh, and it’s gone before we even know |
Oh, but I’ll follow it 'round |
Yeah, I’ll follow it 'round |
Oh, I’ll follow it 'round |
Yeah, I’ll follow it 'round |
'Till peaceful, the world lays me down |
