Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I raise my head and set myself
In the eye of a storm, in the belly of a whale
My sprit stood on solid ground
I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 2]
When I was a child, I cried
Until my needs were satisfied
My needs have grown up, pound for pound
I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 3]
When they lay me down some day
My soul will rise and fly away
This old world will turn around
I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 4]
This life isn't fair, it seems
It's filled with tears and broken dreams
There are no tears where I am bound
And I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 5]
When they lay me down some day
My soul will rise and fly away
This old world will turn around
I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 6]
When they lay me down some day
My soul will rise and fly away
This old world will turn around
I'll be at peace when they lay me down
[Verse 7]
When I was a child, I cried
