Can't look back I'll just ease away Got to leave the throne before it's too late Time to step down and leave the ground The noose around my head is overwound Oh yeah So I lay me down On your streets again To find some peace of mind And I pray these streets my soul to take If I die before I wake I feel the sword above my head Hanging from a single thread of fate Thread of fate I want to make my own bed But not to cry in it I want to die in it and feel I'm safe So lay me down on your streets again To find some peace of mind And I pray these streets my soul to take If I die before I wake Right before I go I need to let you know Honestly you know I'm a destitute thrown to the limelight I was born without a home In a palace full of strangers and catfights Oh and from early, early on I've been looking for love and a lifeline Someone to throw me a line So I lay me down On your streets again To find some peace of mind And I pray these streets my poor soul to take If I die before I wake I lay me down on your streets again Tonight my love arrives
