Lyrics of Laid So Low (Tears Roll Down) by Tears for Fears

verse

Chewed the bone down too low
Got fed on tea and sympathy
Blew the sail like the wind
I wish you were my enemy
I was humble for you
What a fool I've been to have
Laid so low -- for so long -- so low

chorus

Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down

hook

Where tears roll down

verse

Drew the blade way too slow
Was shackled by your honesty
Made a mess I, guess I, should have known
That life was lust and liberty

pre-chorus

Not a chance mutation
Or the last temptation

chorus

Laid, so low -- for so long -- so low
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
Writer(s): Roland Orzabal, Dave Bascombe
