Only thing I can think of is the Magnapop song "Lay It Down," but I don't think that's a dirge.

Maybe "Lay it Down, Clown" by the Replacements?

It wouldn’t be George Harrison’s “Let it Down” would it?

jaymc is the closest in terms of general sonics and time period

I can barely remember any of the little bit I was able to hear so I guess it's lost to the sands of time

Actually The Loud Family is the closest

Since I can't really recall what that tune I heard sounded like will just accept The Loud Family and Magnapop and listen to those instead.

Not "All Over You" by Live? Lots of "lay me downs" in that song. Not sure what a power pop dirge is, but maybe could describe it

ummm long shot but go to 2:00 of “bentwood boys” by suede?

this is folk rock rather than power pop, but it's definitely a dirge alright (a beautiful one though! heartbreakingly so tbh)

The Albion Band - Ampleforth / Lay Me Low

(starts off slow before Lay Me Low kicks in - Richard Thjompson in glorious form; Linda Thompson, Kate McGarrigle and others on vocals)

guessing it's not slow hands by silkworm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHQUineBfjs. it's definitely dirgey but the lyric is "laying it down in full view"
