Lay My Head to Rest

I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to second best again
I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to

Lay My Head to Rest

O she's got eyes for the rebound
I'm the chain pulling on her life
I'm a burden to the joy of another
I'll blot the sun and make it rain

Bare my back to the whip that cuts
I put my name in darkened lights
I told her not to stand in the doorway
I am the chain that ruins your life

I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to second best again
I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to

Lay My Head to Rest

O' she might have eyes for another
But it's her heart that belongs to me
She shows me all the beautiful birds
But black crows are all I see

Bare her back to the whip that cuts
Her willingness a sacrifice
I told her not to stand in the doorway
I am the chain that ruins your life

I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to second best again
I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to

Lay My Head to Rest

Sometimes it feel so good
Hiding in plain sight
To satisfy the lust that's within me
And she knew she could
Cause it felt so right
Together we shared
Unbroken love binds

I don't want to be a ball and chain
I'm on my way to second best again
Another human turning inhumane
I'm on my way to

Lay My Head to Rest
