lay me down

i lay me down before the gods
i lay me down before them all
i lay me down a child i am
before the legendary fall

i rest me in the arms of that
who gave me light for now
i know of nothing more than peace:
what's in the here and now

i turn my life into the void
and all the riches there
i know that what's in front of me
is my creations atmosphere

my function in this conciosness
is not for me to say
i lay me in the rivers flow
i do not know the way

i merely know that i am here
i do not guide my fate
even if i think i do
it's imaginations mate

master of my fate they say
captian of my soul i'm told
maybe so maybe not
presumtion is so bold

i lay me down i lay me down
before i go to sleep
before the trust that i am whole
no need to fear or weep
