Lay It Down, Let It Die

Aubrey Ashburn


Are you really driving here?
But so so loving
It's unfair
You've crept into my heart
I've got everything
It takes to sew you up
But I can't
Release you from yourself

And what you got is what you need

Lay it down, let it die
This hunger to suffer
Unwillingness to try
Lay it down, let it die

I can see you hanging from a cloud
There's nothing underneath
It's okay
Liking being alive
If I was a
I'd fight your fights for you
A small prize
Swelling up my chest

And what you got is what you need

Lay it down, let it die
This hunger to suffer
Unwillingness to try
Lay it down, let it die

Just throw it away
Give it up. It's over
There's nothing to say
Just turn around and walk away

Lay it down

Lay it down, let it die
This hunger to suffer
Unwillingness to try
Lay it down, let it die
This fever for danger
Unhappiness for nice
Lay it down, let it die
