Darlin dont you lay yourself down
We live in a fable
We live in a make-believe town
All cardboard and dust
Its not so important
Darlin there are tears in your eyes
Youre weakened and wearied
You feel compromised
And though they long to carry
My arms can only surround
Dont you lay yourself down
Even if the battle is won
The war is not over
Its only begun
If theres one still standing
One still standing his ground
Dont you lay yourself down
Dont you lay yourself down
Baby, be strong for me, please
Even if the battle is won
The war is not over
Its only begun
If theres one still standing
One still standing his ground
Dont you lay yourself down
Dont you lay yourself down
Dont you lay yourself down
