Painted Skies

[Verse 1] Lazy days, I′ve not been moving Distractive haze, it leaves me brooding Elated by the clouds I don't plan on coming down Vivid dreams, but I′m not in them Trying to pray my head stops spinning Eyes don't tell the truth Oh, I'm drained from wasted youth [Pre-Chorus] Will you call my name when I stop living? No, I′m not too keen on dying for the system Oh, and all my sins, oh have they been forgiven? I am claiming faith in every word I′ve written [Chorus] Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest [Bridge] Channelling these messages like I don't have a voice Before my soul was planted here I know I made this choice I won′t claim no ignorance or any source of pride Temptation keeps me weary of this lonely way of life "Surrender" they call out, there's always magic in the air The fantasy is real and we′ve been blessed to ground it here I know my doubts won't actualise, the fear is in my head I won′t escape to ease the pain, I know where I've been led [Chorus] Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest [Verse 2] Shadow self, she's lost her way When did we become estranged? I beg for guidance from the sage I′ve locked eyes with the ocean in mind Ground me with your ballad of soil I′ve been sowing these seeds for so long [Chorus] Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay my soul to rest underneath these painted skies Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest Lay me down, lay me down Lay my soul to rest
