I can tell you're feeling uninspired I can see you lost most of your fire I don't see the will or the desire And I can't hold a hand that won't reach for me I don't know your struggles or your reasons And I don't know the names of all your demons I'm just a friend who knows what you've been needing Someone to share your burden helps set you free So come and lay it down Oh you can lay it all on me Come lay it down Oh I'll help to find and ease Just lay it down Oh you can lay it all on me Come lay it down Baby everybody's trying to climb their mountain Don't nobody know a way to go around it If there's a road that's trouble-free, no one has found it So don't ever feel like no one knows your suffering Everybody has a load that they must carry To go it alone is so unnecessary Don't let your pride deny this love ain't good for sharing 'Cause I'm here for you and any healing that may bring
So come and lay it down Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Come lay it down Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease Just lay it down Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Come lay it down Someday when this pain is over The light at the end I see Oh one day you will need a shoulder Come lay all your burdens on me Just lay it down, just lay it down So come and lay it down Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Just lay it down Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease Just lay it down Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Come lay it down Lay your burdens all on me Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Just lay it down Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease Come lay it down Come lay it, you can lay it all on me Come lay it down It's gonna be alright We gonna work it out, yeah
