"Lay Down And Die" lyrics

No, I'm not your friend
How can I be when you secretly
Take joy in my pain
I should've seen
Seen it coming when you said

Why can't you lay down and die
Why can't you lay down

Reaching through the contrails scratching at what's past the sky (past the sky)
I don't need your permission and I don't need your advice
I hear your words echo all the time (in my mind, in my mind)
Why can't you lay down and die

Cuz I'd rather fail than never try
I'd rather fail than never try

So you think you won
Come very soon you'll choke on that silver spoon
A snake in the grass, stuck in the past
Showed your colors when you said

Why can't you lay down and die
Why can't you lay down

Reaching through the contrails scratching at what's past the sky (past the sky)
I don't need your permission and I don't need your advice
I hear your words echo all the time (in my mind, in my mind)
Why can't you lay down and die

Cuz I'd rather fail than never try
I'd rather fail

Why can't you lay down and die
Why can't you lay down

Reaching through the contrails scratching at what's past the sky (past the sky)
I don't need your forgiveness no I don't need your advice
I hear your words echo all the time (in my mind, in my mind)
I hear your words echo in my mind (in my mind, in my mind)
Why can't you lay down and die
Why can't you lay down and die
Why can't you lay down and die

Cuz I'd rather fail than never try
Yeah, I'd rather fail than never try
Cuz I'd rather fail
