Lay Down from Erika by Dead Kings of Norway

Lay down next to me

I’m gunna lay down, I’m gunna lay down right next to you
We’re gunna slow down, feel that ground and grow those roots
Souls rise, keep it up inside

Told me she was seventeen when she got raped in Bowling Green, leave it alone now
Just a mall rat spoiled brat but daddy was a bureaucrat
Flipped that baby sent it back so we gave him a heart attack
Those fat stacks and tailored slacks pack facts of death tax and sexual traps
So we took a bat and made his fat fall flat, you see we’re good at that

Seal it up with a Roman kiss and I’ll wait for it to touch my lips
Don’t keep me waiting too long
Did you expect another sloppy tryst or did you re-enlist when we first kissed
Don’t keep me waiting too long
I feel the love of the Lord the moment we lay down, don’t keep me waiting

No point in hiding we’re falling, we're falling for you.
Erika, what you've been through
Couldn't be, couldn't see those awful dreams that come true.
Leave a list for the oldest to get what you might want from us unless it’s us that you want to discuss.
You’re blameless, not shameless,
Cover up your sins and we’ll explore the space where both our bodies end

Seal it up with a Roman kiss and I’ll wait for it to touch my lips
Don’t keep me waiting too long
Did you expect another sloppy tryst or did you re-enlist when we first kissed
Don’t keep me waiting too long
I feel the love of the Lord the moment we lay down, don’t keep me waiting
