I can hear

Your voice, your voice

Calling from the window

When you yelled that night

I didn't understand at all



But you hurt

And you cried

And you're mad

And you're angry at the world

You want to tear it down

You want to pull it down, down down

Come on and lay down

Lay down, lay down your pain



Having you here, feels good

Feels good inside the afternoon

And no one else

Could ever take away that, man

You wanted love

But have you fear

You wanted love but it's the fear

And yet the fear it feels so real

And you run, run away

Running from the pain, the pain

Come on and lay down

Lay down, lay down your pain









Don't you see

This world

This world can be what you want

Don't give it up, boy

Don't you give it up, don't give it

Don't you give it up, boy

You wanted love

You wanted joy

You wanted simple things in life



The world, the world is a better place

And this world is a better place

Yes, the world is a better place

1234567 all good girls go to heaven

That's what they say

1234567 all good boys go to heaven

That's what they say

Cause the world is a better place

Yes, the world is a better place



Come on, come on and lay down

Won't you lay down this pain

The world is a better place

Lay down your pain
