"Lay Our Flowers Down"

[00:10.61] Candle wax, like a river on the concrete

[00:15.87] Fears will fly if you let them

[00:20.87] Pattern leather dress, shoes on a baby's feet

[00:26.11] Is he too young to tell him

[00:29.62] People come and gather round

[00:35.87] Only love can lift us now

[00:40.14] We find our common thread over tear-stained ground

[00:45.63] Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[01:02.37] White knuckles, cotton beads on a rosary

[01:07.37] Hoping one has an answer

[01:12.40] You hung it on the mirror only as a novelty

[01:17.63] But now you squeeze it 'til your hands hurt

[01:21.38] People come and gather round

[01:27.37] Only love can lift us now

[01:31.63] We find our common thread over tear-stained ground

[01:37.12] Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[01:46.63] Oh, lay 'em down

[01:54.37] Another bad sign, another hard time

[01:59.12] Headlines you can't ignore

[02:04.63] This ain't the first time

[02:07.15] This ain't the last time

[02:09.36] Trouble's flying at your door

[02:13.11] People come, people come

[02:22.87] Oh, people come and gather round

[02:29.37] Only love can lift us now

[02:32.13] Only love can lift us now

[02:33.86] We find our common thread over tear-stained ground

[02:39.13] Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[02:44.37] Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[02:49.12] (Raise our voices up)

[02:49.89] Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[03:02.15] Oh, lay 'em down
