[Noah, the Whale - Peaceful, the World Lays Me Down lyrics]
Oh, well it's hard to look
Deep into your soul
Not everything you'll find will
Be perfect gold
There are ghosts and demons that
Hide in the dark oh, they wait till I find
Love and then they lark
Oh, they know that my body
Is no way good enough
Know that my heart is no way strong enough
To bear the sorrow that love brings
Oh, when I coil in fear, oh, the demons sing
But, it's a hollow love for
A heart with no blood in it's veins
Oh, there is no endless devotion
That is free from the force of erosion
Oh, if you don't believe in God
How can you believe in love?
When we're all just matter that
Will one day scatter
When peaceful, the world lays us down
Oh, and finding love is a matter of luck
Oh, and unsettled lovers move
From fuck to fuck
Oh, and compare their achievements
Like discussing bereavements
And compare their abrasions
With romantic quotations
Oh, as peaceful, the world watches down
Oh, we were blown out of the water
Oh, and we walk on the feet we have grown
Oh we were given a heart
At least love was a part
Oh, and we called it the thing
From which our life will spring
And it gave value to the
World that surrounds us
But we consider the world just for a moment
Oh, and it's gone before we even know
Oh, but I'll follow it 'round
Yeah, I'll follow it 'round
Oh, I'll follow it 'round
Yeah, I'll follow it 'round
'Till peaceful, the world lays me down
Deep into your soul
Not everything you'll find will
Be perfect gold
There are ghosts and demons that
Hide in the dark oh, they wait till I find
Love and then they lark
Oh, they know that my body
Is no way good enough
Know that my heart is no way strong enough
To bear the sorrow that love brings
Oh, when I coil in fear, oh, the demons sing
But, it's a hollow love for
A heart with no blood in it's veins
Oh, there is no endless devotion
That is free from the force of erosion
Oh, if you don't believe in God
How can you believe in love?
When we're all just matter that
Will one day scatter
When peaceful, the world lays us down
Oh, and finding love is a matter of luck
Oh, and unsettled lovers move
From fuck to fuck
Oh, and compare their achievements
Like discussing bereavements
And compare their abrasions
With romantic quotations
Oh, as peaceful, the world watches down
Oh, we were blown out of the water
Oh, and we walk on the feet we have grown
Oh we were given a heart
At least love was a part
Oh, and we called it the thing
From which our life will spring
And it gave value to the
World that surrounds us
But we consider the world just for a moment
Oh, and it's gone before we even know
Oh, but I'll follow it 'round
Yeah, I'll follow it 'round
Oh, I'll follow it 'round
Yeah, I'll follow it 'round
'Till peaceful, the world lays me down
