lyrics

I will make and burn an effigy
Of everything I loved and used to be
And I will burn it to the ground
And hope the light will turn you round

Just please
Lay your hands
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

Just
Lay your hands
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

There is skin and there is ground
A heart breaks with a deafening sound
In the silence left behind
You tell me I am not your kind

But lay me down
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

Lay your hands
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

My ribcage strains against my skin
Tries to contain what its been holding in
With a split and a crack and a tear
I will meet you there
(I will meet you there)

Just
Lay your hands
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

Please
Lay your hands
Lay your hands
Lay your hands on me

(Won't you lay?
Won't you lay your hands on me?)
