Sinner's Lullaby

Lay me down upon the flames
That captivate these mindless wandering eyes
Set fire to the sky, won't weep for, this tragic angel's fall
Am I supposed to cry or am I
Supposed to lie and say I'll be just fine
While you lay down tonight
Beneath the moonlight

Lay me down and let me wither
Let me burn into your flame
No more secrets stow your weakness
Rest my heart beside your grave
Let it burn into your memory
I'm not sorry I won't cave
I won't try to calm your nightmares
But I just can't walk away
Lay me down

Watch the smoke clear the sky
Leave behind no trace for me to find
My way behind this lie beside you
And sing my sins to sleep
A pretty lullaby you sing
From your grave I hear you weep and say
I'm not sorry for the way I laid you down

Lay me down and let me wither
Let me burn into your flame
No more secrets stow your weakness
Rest my heart beside your grave
Let it burn into your memory
I'm not sorry I won't cave
I won't try to calm your nightmares
But I just can't walk away
Lay me down
Lay me down

Lay me down and let me wither
Let me burn into your flame
No more secrets stow your weakness
Rest my heart beside your grave
Let it burn into your memory
I'm not sorry I won't cave
I won't try to calm your nightmares
But I just can't walk away

Lay me down beneath the waters
Cast me out upon the embers
Give me strength my spirits weakening
I'll sing my sins to sleep
