Lay Myself Down

There's no use in telling me
All you would've done for me
When we both know it'll never come that far
Oh, I know the questions not to ask
But baby, lately it's become so hard...

So I lay myself down just to try it out
And this is all you see:
The image of someone laying down before you
But it's not quite as it seems...

What you see in my face
When I look at you
Is not always what appears to be there
And what you say you notice
In my words when I speak
Is not what's in my voice to hear

But I lay myself down just to try it out
And this is all you'll see
'Cause the image of someone
Laying down before you
Is just a fragment of me...

And you think you know everything
But you're wrong
And you conclude, from my silence
Just when you think you've got it it's gone!
And you think you have all the solutions
But I say you don't
You've only got the answers to a few questions
Lined up in front

So I lay myself down just to try it out
And this is all you'll ever see:
The image of someone
Laying down before you
While I sort out what I really feel

There's no use in telling me you love honesty
When your desire seeks a good act
And there's no help in me
Giving you all of myself
When vibrations are all you talk about...

And I lay myself down just to try it out
And this is all I let you see:
The image of someone laying down before you
Only I know it's not really me
You can say it's my retreat
Struggling to break free
Only I know how I feel
Only I know...
