lay my head down
Oh the party?s kicked up a few notches  Look at us getting loose  She leans back against the wall and she watches, tugging her collar like it might be a noose.   And everyone's tied to their thing  To their past or their drink or the date that they bring  I just get tired all of sudden taking it in.   And I want to lay my head down on you   Because you're the only solid thing in this room   A room full of changes, strangers, illusion, confusion,  I speak from my heart but I'm not really sure if it's true.  I wanna lay my head down on you.   Oh they say don't waste too much time planning  Or you'll get rug ripped out  And the only way you?ll be satisfied  Is learning to live without.  But some plan for the kingdom of heaven  And some take their chances and bet lucky seven  I don?t know what to believe, I just show up and breathe anymore.   And I wanna lay my head down on you  Because you're the only solid thing in this room   A room full of dressers, professors, lookers, hookers  If I don?t get out I'll do something I don?t wanna do.   And I wanna lay my head down on you.   Was it so long ago  That we sat and talked in your car  Your things were all packed  And the place you were headed not really that far  Years later I think  That I would have been much more alive  To have taken you up on your offer and taken that drive   Oh well everything that?s come before us leads us to where we are now And that's simple, I know so why can't I let go of the feeling  That I'm lost somehow  I'm just a ghost looking in  Out of my own life just visiting  In search of a body to have and to hold and to keep and to sleep.   I wanna lay my head down on you  Because you're the only solid thing in this room  A room full of missed chance, slow dance, cold fate heartache  I showed up for a party and saw my life story full view   And I wanna lay my head down on you.
