[Verse 1]
Midnight and I'm
Drying your tears on my sleeve
Let's leave the unread messages on ice, please
[Pre-Chorus]
How many burgers you wanna turn?
How many times you wanna get burned?
They just don't understand
This isn't the place you end up
[Chorus]
Hey
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this broken place
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this town
[Verse 2]

[Pre-Chorus]
How many dollars you wanna earn?
How many times 'til you're gonna learn?

[Chorus]
Hey
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this broken place
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this town
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this broken place
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this town
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this broken place
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this town
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this broken place
Lay low, Layla
Let's get outta this town
