Lyrics

[00:00.90] 09.Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down
[00:10.17] Oh well it's hard to look deep into your soul
[00:15.36] Not everything you'll find will be perfect gold
[00:19.67] There are ghosts and demons that hide in the dark
[00:28.61] Oh they wait till you find them and then they laugh
[00:42.31] Oh they know that my body is no way good enough
[00:47.68] Know that my heart is no way strong enough to bear the sorrow that love brings
[01:00.87] When I recoil in fear, oh the demons sing
[01:14.75][02:19.19] But it's a hollow love for a heart with no blood
[01:23.57][02:28.70] In its veins
[02:36.14] Oh there is no endless devotion
[02:43.83] That is free from the force of erosion
[02:51.39] Oh if you don't believe in God how can you believe in love?
[02:59.39] When we're all just matter that will one day scatter
[03:06.87] When peaceful the world lays us down
[03:14.49] Oh and finding love is a matter of luck
[03:21.74] And unsettled lovers move from **** to ****
[03:29.55] Oh and compare their achievments like dicussing berevements
[03:37.37] And compare their abbrations with romantic quotations
[03:44.99] Oh as peaceful, the world watches down
[04:26.44] But we were blown out of the water
[04:34.19] Oh and we walk on the feet we have grown
[04:41.82] And we were given a heart, of which love is a part
[04:49.69] Oh and we cornered the thing from which all life will spring
[04:57.26] And it gave value to the world that surrounds us
[05:35.02] But we consider the world just for a moment
[05:42.71] And its gone before we even know
[05:50.34] But I'll follow it round
[05:54.27] Yeah I'll follow it round
[05:58.09] Oh I'll follow it round
[06:01.97] Yeah I'll follow it round
[06:05.97] Til peaceful, the world lays me down
[06:12.34]
[06:15.34]
