I know you thought that you could bury me

Put me six feet down

beneath your guilty pleas

Oh, your hell's shoveled ground

You lay me down as you smoke my praise

Digging foot by foot you dug my grave

Oh, you'll never lay me down

(Lay me down)

Oh, lay me down

(Lay me down)

Oh, don't lay me down now

(Oh, oh)

You'll never lay me down

(Lay me down)

Oh, lay me down

(Lay me down)

Oh, lay me down now

(Oh, oh)

No, you'll never lay me down

I see your feet and they're covered in mud

I see your hands

they're all stained from the blood

Oh, I'll forgive you for your sins

I hope you feel better

now that you are free

Now that you tried to kill us both

tried to feed off me

Oh I wish you weren't my friend

Oh, lay me down

Oh, lay me down

No, you'll never lay me down

Oh, lay me down

Oh, lay me down

No, you'll never lay me down

You can't kill me, I'm already dead

I grow stronger with your gun to my head

See I've lived and died a thousand times

I'll climb out again

Lay me down, you'll never lay me down

Oh no, you'll never lay me down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, down

Lay me down, down, you'll never lay me down

You can't kill me, I'm already dead

I grow stronger with your gun to my head

See I've lived and died a thousand times

I'll climb out again

Lay me down, you'll never lay me down

You can't kill me, I'm already dead

I grow stronger with your gun to my head

See I've lived and died a thousand times

I'll climb out again

Lay me down, you'll never lay me down

Oh no, you'll never lay me down

Oh no, you'll never lay me down
