Lyrics

Lay It Down

I would have lied for you

I would have died for you

You cut the skin off my bones

I thought you'd steal for me

I thought you'd kill for me

Ain't gonna throw the first stone

I feel a growing anger

'Cause you turned your back on me

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

I'm gonna fight for you

I'm gonna kill for you

I'm the blade of your knife

I gave my heart to you

But lost my faith in you

Now you're the hate of my life

I feel a growing anger

'Cause you turned your back on me

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

Lay it down on me

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

Lay it down on me - I have lied for you

Lay it down on me - and I have died for you

Lay it down on me - lay it down on me

Lay it down on me - you cut the skin off my back

Lay it down on me...
