Lay Me Down Lyrics

Will you return to sender
The message that I wrote
On a spiral bound pad
Left around your flat?
I had to go

Tell my mother not to worry
Tell my father I'm alright
Been awake for days
O when are you coming
Crashing through my night?

And for a while, I'd lay me down

If I should ever wander
If I should ever stray
I've got a vague idea I like it here
And the feeling I should stay

I did my worst to those who loved me
And gave my best to those who don't
Well I brought them all a wrecking ball
And I took it to their homes

And for a while, I'll lay me down
