Lyrics
0:11I've played your game
0:13And I've played it well
0:16I'll be another fool
0:18To hang upon your wall
0:21I laid my heart out
0:24Like an open book
0:26It's a simple thing and don't take much
0:29To crack it open and bleed
0:36Lay me down
0:38Lay me down when you're through with me
0:41Lay me down
0:43Let me bleed when you're through with me
0:47Don't let me think you're wrong
0:48Just let me fall down
0:49I'll pick myself up again
0:53It's the kindest thing you can do for me
0:56So woman won't you lay me down
1:14I lied to myself
1:16Tried to believe in you
1:19But it's hard to rely on the ghost of someone you hardly even knew
1:24You bring things out
1:26Just to bring me down
1:29Then you twist them about and shove 'em in my face
1:32Til my eyes can't see any good
1:36Yeah
1:39Lay me down
1:41Lay me down when you're through with me
1:44Lay me down
1:46Let me bleed when you're through with me
1:49Don't let me think you're wrong
1:51Just let me fall down
1:52I'll pick myself up again
1:56It's the kindest thing you can do for me
1:59So woman won't you lay me down
2:39Lay me down
2:42Lay me down when you're through with me
2:44Lay me down
2:47Let me bleed when you're through with me
2:50Don't let me think you're wrong
2:51Just let me fall down
2:53I'll pick myself up again
2:57It's the kindest thing you can do for me
3:00So woman won't you lay lay me down
3:13Lay me down
3:15Lay me down when you're through with me
3:18Lay me down
3:20Let me bleed when you're through with me
3:23Don't let me think you're wrong
3:24Just let me fall down
3:26I'll pick myself up again
3:30Lay me down
3:32Lay me down when you're through with me
3:35Lay me down
3:38Let me bleed when you're through with me
3:44So woman won't you lay me down
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 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 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 lay me down 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 Lay me down Lay me down when you're through with me Lay me down Let me bleed when you're through with me So woman won't you lay me down
