Standing in the shadows A high for the restless heart Strangers and the scarecrows I lost the race before the start Staring at the ceiling The bridges that were burned The fortune and the beauty And tides that never turned I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head Just a matter of time Before the castle turns to sand And after all my remedies There's still blood on my hands I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head Mmm, a place to rest Out on the highway Dancing alone The thunder of a heartbeat In these weary bones I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head Whoa, whoa, whoa I need a place to lay my head I need a place to lay my head
