“…It’s alright, it’s okay. I’ve been there in your place”
Lyrics
You cannot chase this ghost away
And this too shall pass, this too shall pass
It won’t always be the same
Is a stone in the path to this place
And every single choice that you made
Has led you this way, so lay your head on me
Lay your head on me
Lay your head on me
Don’t be afraid love
And your secret is not safe with me
You can spin through the night with your powdered mind
But don’t cover up your scars for me
Was a stone in the path to this place
And every single cut that you claim
Has led you this way
Lay your head on me
Lay your head on me
Lay your head on me
Don’t be afraid love
Someday we will be fine
Staring down the long night
Waiting for the sunrise
It’s alright, it’s okay
I’ve been there in your place
It’s okay, it’s alright
Lay your head on me (It’s okay, it’s alright)
Lay your head on me (It’s okay, it’s alright)
Lay your head on me (It’s okay, it’s alright)
Don’t be afraid love
