Bad as I've been to you
Bad as you've been to me
There's always been a trouble-man
Hiding out within me
Nothing that I could say
Nothing that I could do
I'm ready for the arena
I'm ready, come forth with the fool
Lay me down
Straight as I can be
Lay me down
I will be with me
Lay me down
Let the sun make light of me
Lay me down
Find us in our bodies
Bad as I've been to you
Bad as you've been to me
There's always been a trouble-girl
Hiding out within you and me
Nothing that I could say
Nothing that I could do
I'm ready for the arena
I'm ready, come forth with the wool
Lay me down
Straight as I can be
(I want you to lay me down)
Lay me down
And I will be with me
(I want you to lay me down)
Lay me down
Let the sun make light of me
Lay me down
Find us in our bodies
All this noise between us
It keeps us quiet
All the promises of offerings
Once these were what our friendship was built upon
Our future is into the ponds
And our friendship together is in this silence
And making sound that can last
That can last
All this noise between us
It keeps us quiet
All this noise between us
It keeps us quiet
All this noise between us
It keeps us
