Now I Lay Thee Down

I want to know 
How it feels 
When we die 
Can you take me under? 

Dream over 
Grieve no more 
And breathe one last time 
Now I lay thee down 

She watched me leave 
Me bleeding 
On the floor 
As she takes me under 

Dream over 
Grieve no more 
And breathe one last time 
Now I lay thee down 

Godless mimicry 
White lights cemetery 
Flashes of the angel’s ivory wings 
Images so many broken dreams 

Of pain 
Terror 
Fear 
Crippling 

Follow the light into the tunnel 
Or will it end up in a black hole? 
Follow the light into the tunnel, 
Dead in its end 

What is love? 
What is murder? 
Within the eye of the beholder 

What have I done? 
I’ve gone and killed the only one I love 
How could I do this? 
I’m screaming at God 
Why do you curse me?  [bad word] it, load it, sever the day 

Dream over 
Grieve no more 
And breathe one last time 
Now I lay thee down 

Now I lay thee down, 
Underground
