Now I Lay Thee Down - Machine Head

I want to know

How it feels

When we die

Can you take me under?

Dream over

Grieve no more

And breathe one last time

Now I lay thee down

She watched me leave

Me bleeding

On the floor

As she takes me under

Godless mimicry

White lights cemetery

Flashes of the angel’s ivory wings

Images so many broke dreams

Of pain

Terror

Fear

Crippling

Follow the light into the tunnel

Or will it end up in a black hole?

Follow the light into the tunnel,

Dead in its end

What is love?

What is murder?

Within the eye of the beholder

What have I done?

I’ve gone and killed the only one I love

How could I do this?

I’m screaming at God

Why do you curse me?

Fuck it, load it, sever the day

Now I lay thee down,

Underground
