Lay Me Down Lyrics by Oliver Daldry

After Dark

2015

I remember your flesh and your skin
This complexion, attention
The taste of our sin
And all those sweet words
And I knew you better than you
I knew how to twist
How to break you in two
And all those sweet words
You're layin' me down like you do
Well I don't know nothin' but you
But I know you better now
God, I just wanna shout
I'm sorry I pulled you down
You're better than me
I know it's been awhile
But somehow you're on my mind
I swear I did everything
In honest belief
And all your sweet words
You let me down
I still have these visions of grace
You're dressed in your work clothes
And you're washin' your face
And you're talkin' to me
I quietly watch you undress
She knows what I want but the room is a mess
And so we're talkin' instead
You lay me down like you do
And I don't want nothin' but true
And I know you better now
Sometimes I wanna shout
I'm sorry I pulled you down
You're better than me
And I know it's been awhile
But somehow you're on my mind
I swear I did everything
In honest belief
And all your sweet words
You let me down
And all your sweet words
You let me down
(So I was standin' on the sun)
(So I was standin' on the sun)
In all your words
In all your words
In all your words
You let me down
