"Lay Me To Rest" lyrics
Memories like shattered glass
Broken and turned to dust
Watching the white sands through the hourglass
I come to terms with the truth
I'm all I've ever had
Parting clouds give way
Yet all I see are black and grey
No definition
No dividing line
Stumbling through a haze
That clouds my mind
Lost in the grip of time
And if you find me please don't say a word
Leave me quiet in the garden
That I planted from the seeds
Of my own self destruction
Just let me wither
Let me wilt and let me rot into decay
Crucify me like the ones who came before
Watch my foundation give way (give way)
Spill my blood on the bathroom floor
Lay me to rest in a bed of my mistakes
But please don't say a word
Let this silence be my eulogy
When I return to the earth
Memories, they fade away
Drifting like the sand
Falling apart as you start to slip
Taken from my hands
Nothing left for me
Cut the disease
From the family tree
Nothing left for me
Lay me to rest
And when the curtain closes
I am left in the solace
At the end, when the lights go down
That I kept my promise
Memories, they fade away
Drifting like the sand
Falling apart as you start to slip
Taken from my hands
And if you find me please don't say a word
Leave me quiet in the garden
That I planted from the seeds
Of my own self destruction
Broken and turned to dust
Watching the white sands through the hourglass
I come to terms with the truth
I'm all I've ever had
Parting clouds give way
Yet all I see are black and grey
No definition
No dividing line
Stumbling through a haze
That clouds my mind
Lost in the grip of time
And if you find me please don't say a word
Leave me quiet in the garden
That I planted from the seeds
Of my own self destruction
Just let me wither
Let me wilt and let me rot into decay
Crucify me like the ones who came before
Watch my foundation give way (give way)
Spill my blood on the bathroom floor
Lay me to rest in a bed of my mistakes
But please don't say a word
Let this silence be my eulogy
When I return to the earth
Memories, they fade away
Drifting like the sand
Falling apart as you start to slip
Taken from my hands
Nothing left for me
Cut the disease
From the family tree
Nothing left for me
Lay me to rest
And when the curtain closes
I am left in the solace
At the end, when the lights go down
That I kept my promise
Memories, they fade away
Drifting like the sand
Falling apart as you start to slip
Taken from my hands
And if you find me please don't say a word
Leave me quiet in the garden
That I planted from the seeds
Of my own self destruction
