There You Lay
You were always tough
Sometimes cruel and mean
Had to accept your fists as love
Or so it would seem
Once you were so strong
And now you're old and gray
Used to stand so tall
But there you lay
You used to toss me around
And would carry me
Then all that ended one day
When no one was there to see
Not sure what I did
That drove you away
You told me once you were proud
Now there you lay
There you lay
There you lay
There you lay
I should get this over with
Before they carry you away
It's so much water under the bridge
You know what I've got to say
I love and forgive you
I'm not the kind to pray
Hope that all your ghosts are gone
As there you lay
There you lay
There you lay
There you lay
Sometimes cruel and mean
Had to accept your fists as love
Or so it would seem
Once you were so strong
And now you're old and gray
Used to stand so tall
But there you lay
You used to toss me around
And would carry me
Then all that ended one day
When no one was there to see
Not sure what I did
That drove you away
You told me once you were proud
Now there you lay
There you lay
There you lay
There you lay
I should get this over with
Before they carry you away
It's so much water under the bridge
You know what I've got to say
I love and forgive you
I'm not the kind to pray
Hope that all your ghosts are gone
As there you lay
There you lay
There you lay
There you lay
