Lay Your Heart To Rest Lyrics
I've fallen from grace into the kingdom of shadowlands
Into the pleasure's nest
This pale death on my face I've come to love and understand
When I laid my heart to rest
And I believe in one thing forevermore
To live is to love the pain
And I feel like I never felt before
The rapture of dying
Slow, deep and hard through your frail and virgin mind
Will flow its lifeless zest
Take it in your heart and you will become my kind
Just lay your heart to rest
And you believe in one thing forevermore
To live is to love pain
And you feel like you never felt before
The rapture of dying
And you believe in one thing forevermore
To live is to love pain
And you feel like you never felt before
The rapture of dying
Into the pleasure's nest
This pale death on my face I've come to love and understand
When I laid my heart to rest
To live is to love the pain
And I feel like I never felt before
The rapture of dying
Will flow its lifeless zest
Take it in your heart and you will become my kind
Just lay your heart to rest
To live is to love pain
And you feel like you never felt before
The rapture of dying
And you believe in one thing forevermore
To live is to love pain
And you feel like you never felt before
The rapture of dying
