There's a locomotive
Pulling out the station
And I know you're leaving
Never come back again
Now I'm empty bottles
And I've drawn the curtains
I can't kill this feeling
Trying to burn through my head
Well I guess I learned my lesson
No, you shouldn't play with fire
Stuck beneath the wreckage
Of my broken Desire
Ooh, lay down and die
Oh, lay down and die
I'm giving up
Wasn't enough In your eyes
So I'm ready to
We were young and foolish
Drinking gin for breakfast
It was young and reckless
Like a runaway train
Then it was late night battles
Using words as weapons
Still, I'd take the beating just to feel it again
Saw the warning sign was flashing
It sair "Danger up ahead"
But what was I expecting
Trying to dance with the dead
Oh, lay down and die
Oh, lay down and die
I'm giving up wasn't enough In your eyes
So I'm ready to
Oh, lay down and die
Oh, lay down and die
I'm giving up wasn't enough In your eyes
So I'm ready to
And they tell me
Only time heals an empty soul
And that one day
I'll remember how to sleep alone
And I wish I could get by
And kill the pain
But we'll do this again
Oh, lay down and die
Oh, lay down and die
I'm giving up wasn't enough In your eyes
So I'm ready to
Oh, lay down and die
Oh, lay down and die
I'm giving up wasn't enough In your eyes
So I'm ready to
