"Let It Lie" lyrics - JERRY CANTRELL

[Intro:]
Let it lie
Let it lie

I don't mind the small derision
After all it's just your way
Took the time to come and see ya
Testify to the hate
I see how it fills ya

[Chorus 1:]
Everybody has a spell they're under
Beneath a primal urge to fight
Oh, won't you let it lie?
Let it lie

I am just your reflection
You are mine all squirreled away
Like a bundle of tinder

[Chorus 2:]
Everybody has a spell they're under
Beneath a primal urge to fight
Can you see yourself in the other?
Release the need to be so right
Oh, won't you let it lie?

[Bridge:]
After all it's your way (Turning love away)
After all it's your way (Turning love away)
After all it's your way (Turning love away)

[Guitar solo]

Take the time, your decision
How you shine is night or day
Don't let it break you

[Chorus 3:]
Everybody has a spell they're under (Turning love away)
Beneath a primal urge to fight (Turning love away)
Can you see yourself in the other? (Turning love away)
Release the need to be so right
Oh, can't you let it lie?

[Outro:]
Let it lie
Let it lie
Let it lie, yeah
Let it lie
Let it lie
