Lay Your Weapons Down

There's been a lot of miscommunication lately

A lot of wait and see and too many maybes

And I wanna believe that your faith in me is as strong as it was when we thought we'd be unbreakable

All the words we say end up distorted

From skinbreak to heartache without warning

And you don't mean it and I don't either, we get so close to being defeated by circumstance

Do we stand a chance to rise above it all

But I feel so small

Lay your weapons down

And I'll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it's lost

'Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

Ooh

Lay your weapons down

Ooh

Feel so uncomfortable in this silence

Behind these invisible walls we build inside us

So what's gonna give and what will it take for us to admit that we're both gonna break if we stay right here

Don't wanna stay right here

Lay your weapons down

And I'll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it's lost

'Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

Ooh

Lay your weapons down

Ooh

I wanna rise above it all

Will you hold me, just hold me

And lay your weapons down

And I'll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it's lost

'Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn't mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

Ooh

Lay your weapons down

Ooh

Lay your weapons down

Ooh

Lay your weapons down

Ooh
