[Verse 1]
When the wild-eyed dogs of day to day
Come snapping at your heels
When there's so much coming at you
That you don't know how to feel
When they've taken all your money
And then come back for your clothes
When your hands are full of thorns
But you can't quit groping for the rose
[Chorus]
In the southland of the heart
Where night blooms perfume the breeze
Lie down
Take your rest with me
[Verse 2]
When thoughts you've tried to leave behind
Keep sniping from the dark
When the fire burns inside you but
You jump from every spark
When your heart's beset by memories
You wish you'd never made
When the sun comes up an enemy
And nothing gives you shade
When the wild-eyed dogs of day to day
Come snapping at your heels
When there's so much coming at you
That you don't know how to feel
When they've taken all your money
And then come back for your clothes
When your hands are full of thorns
But you can't quit groping for the rose
[Chorus]
In the southland of the heart
Where night blooms perfume the breeze
Lie down
Take your rest with me
[Verse 2]
When thoughts you've tried to leave behind
Keep sniping from the dark
When the fire burns inside you but
You jump from every spark
When your heart's beset by memories
You wish you'd never made
When the sun comes up an enemy
And nothing gives you shade
