[Verse 1] You can start a family Or you can start a war Began with good intentions Now you don't know what you're fighting for [Pre-Chorus] There's no way of knowing The way you are today When I look up to the sky There's only one thing that I wanna say [Chorus] Lay down, try and talk about it Lay down, don't scream or cry or shout it Stay down, don't deny or doubt it No one knows you better than me [Pre-Chorus] The world's a little darker Through your tinted view When the times get harder Know I'll always be there for you But there's no way of knowing But I guess if I may When I look up to you There's only one thing that I wanna say [Chorus](x2) Lay down, try and talk about it Lay down, don't scream or cry or shout it Stay down, don't deny or doubt it No one knows you better than me
