Wonder how you sleep
I wonder what you think of me
If I could go back
Would you have ever been with me
I want you to be unused
I want you to remember
I want you to believe in me
I want you on my side

[Chorus]

Come on and lay it down
I''ve always been with you
Here and now
Give all that''s within you
Be my savior
And I''ll be your downfall
mmm, mmm, mmm

Here we go again
Ashamed of being broken in
We''re getting off track
I wanna get you back again
I want you to trouble me
I wanted you turning down
I want you to agree with me
I want so much so bad

[Chorus]

Come on and lay it down
I''ve always been with you
Here and now
Give all that''s within you
Be my savior
And I''ll be your downfall
mmm, mmm, mmm

Yeah, be my savior
(Only love can save us now)
(Don''t lay me down)
(Only love can save us now)
I''ll be your downfall (I''ll be your downfall)
(Ah, love can save us now)
(Don''t save me now)

Lay it down
I''ve always been with you
Hear me now
With all that''s within you
Be my savior
And I''ll be your downfall
mmm, mmm, mmm

Now I''m back on my own
Hear my feet, they''re made of stone
Man, I make you go where I go
Well hell, you, can I take you home
Well, I''m coming home on my back 
Kissing me, your lips painted black
Saying Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Let me be your downfall
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Let me be your downfall, baby
