Peaceful, the World Lays Me Down Lyrics

Oh well it's hard to look deep, into your soul,
Not everything you find, will be perfect gold,
There are ghosts and demons, that hide in the dark,
Oh they wait 'till I find love, and then they laugh.
Oh they know that my body, is no way good enough,
Know that my heart, is no way strong enough,
To bare the sorrow, that love brings,
Oh when I coil in fear, oh the demon sing.
It's a hollow love, for a heart with no blood,
In it's vein.
Oh it's a hollow love, for a heart with no blood,
In it's veins.
Oh there is no, endless devotion,
That is free from the force of erosion,

Oh and if you don't believe in god,
How can you believe in love,
When we're all just matter,
That will one day scatter,
When peaceful, the world lays us down.
Oh and finding love is a matter of luck,
Oh and unsettled lovers move from fuck to fuck,
Oh and compare their achievements,
Like discussing bereavements,
And compare their abrasions, with romantic quotations,
Oh as peaceful, the world watches down.
But oh we were born, out of the water,
Oh and we walk on the feet we have grown,
Oh we were given a heart, of which love was a part,
And we called it the thing, from which our life will spring,
And it gave value, to the world that surrounds us.
But we consider, the world just for a moment,
Oh and it's gone before we even know,
Oh but I'll follow it round,
Yeah I'll follow it round,
Oh I'll follow it round,
Yeah I'll follow it round,
'Till peaceful, the world lays me down.
