Lay Me Down

Lay me down

Next to a bed of roses

Lay me down

In medal box

Pale as a doll

Encircled by forget-me-nots

Lay me down

My painted face

Lay me down

Under the blistering sun

Bury me whole

My time has come

Lay me down

My fingers so cold

Lay me down

Cover my scars

Stich up my heart

I didn’t make it very far

Lay me down

I’m sorry for what I’ve done

Just lay me down

I’m sorry for what I made you do

My soul was broken

Yet I had more to loose

Lay me down

As I fall

Lay me down

Let me go

The war is over

And nobody knows

I beg of you

Just lie me down

Next to a bed of white roses

Lie me down

Let the medal box be my tomb

Lie me down

My time here is done

Please just lay me down

The roses dripped of red

Forget-me-nots have died

Here I am

I’m Buried alive
