Lay This Down Gently

LETRA

Lay This Down Gently

Just lay This Down Gently, I'm feeling unstable
I'm closer to glass than to concrete or stone
I'll deal with this somehow as best as I'm able
You drained me of trust and you left me alone

And you played, on my fears
And I feigned to be blind
And I guess I'm the fool
For not drawin' some line

So spare me the clichés,
How things will be better
Don't you dare claim that you understand me

'Cause these words that you offer
Under cover of kindness
Are selfish not selfless,
And that's plain to see

I thought you would change
That you'd settle down
Just how much did you think
I would swallow
To keep you around
To keep you around

And you played on my fears
And I feigned to be blind
And I guess I'm the fool
For not drawing some line

Well right now I am calm,
The rage will come later
I'll deal with this in my own time,
My own way

But right now pack your bags
Can walk out the door
When time's done its healing,
I'll hear what you say

I thought you would change
That you'd settle down
Just how much did you think I would swallow
To keep you around
To keep you around
