Lay down, sleep my little darling I'll be nothing when you're gone Lay down just like in a coffin Then I'll have nothing but a song I'll leave you in a coffin for real And I'll leave you in a church Lay down, leave, you'll be lonely I know I won't go Lay down, sleep, you'll be lonely I know I won't go, it's not my turn Lay down, this pain will be long gone With the absence of your breath I know, I know that you loved me But I can't love you when you're dead So I'll leave you with this coffin for God And I'll leave you in the dirt Lay down, leave, you'll be lonely I know I won't go Lay down, sleep, you'll be lonely I know I won't go, it's not my turn Lay down, leave, you'll be lonely I know I won't go Lay down, sleep, you'll be lonely I know I won't go Lay down, before me I know I won't go It's not my turn
