lyrics

Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from your face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think you can
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man...

Twenty-one days lost at sea I fought
For twenty two years, non-stop I talked through the desert
Piss drunk, and confused I walked
I spit a tooth in the palm of my hand

Lay back, lay back...

Well the wind and the trees are gangin' up on me
They sing my funeral song in harmony
I just wanna walk home unaccompanied
They keep singin, they keep singin, singin they keep singin
Singin they keep singin to me
(La la la la la la) I hear 'em singin'

Well I wish things were different, true indeed
But everything is so shallow, is everything about me?
Well they told me I could just take my money and leave
I hope the people on the ground will understand
I hope the people in the crowd will understand

Lay back, lay back ...
