Don't Lay Down and Die

Lay down, baby don't lay down and die

Hold on, don't lay down and die for no reason at all

So long, you've had it bad

One day soon, you'll laugh aloud

What you're being so sad

Is it really so bad?

Lay down, won't you show me a life

Shake it, blow it away or it cuts like a knife

Bad times they seem to be yours

Certain times only get through if you open the door

Listen to me, then you might see

You've got it wrong, hold out some more

Build a new hope, don't lay down and die

I said lay down, baby don't lay down and die

Save it, we're always alone so lift up your eyes

Stand on your own,

Be what you are do what is right

Life is your own,

Not for too long if you give up the fight

Listen to me then you might see
