Lay It Down

verse 1: To every son and daughter Wayward and long gone The love of a father Will leave the light on verse 2: Tried to throw you off track A needle in a haystack I don't know how you found me Or why you let me come back Pre-Chorus 1: 'Cause it's a long way home when all you're left to carry Is a heart of stone and the weight of most the world And I'd like to... Lay it down a little Lay it down a lot I don't want to hold it anymore Lay it down in pieces Lay it down in whole Everything I've carried on my own Lay it down, lay it down Lay it down, lay it down verse 3: I spent your money Living on the fringes But you threw a party for me Invited all your big friends Pre-Chorus 2: And I have learned a little bit about a heavy load All that gleams and glitters is not worth its weight in gold And I know I should... Lay it down a little Lay it down a lot I don't want to hold it anymore Lay it down in pieces Lay it down in whole Everything I've carried on my own Lay it down, lay it down Lay it down, lay it down
