Lay me down in sheets of linen where she lies 
I know she's grinning in there 
Crossed your heart and hoped to die 
And still you broke that spirit that I bear 

Lay me down for a while 
Maybe you can tell me why 
All my dreams are so defiled 
And prove to me 
You're something like human! 

Lay me down in sheets of linen where she hides 
I know I'm going nowhere 
Everything I hoped to be and feel 

Is in those lies you're telling somewhere 

Lay me down for a while 
Maybe you can tell me why 
All my dreams are so defiled 
And prove to me 
You're something like human!
