Lay Down Your Arms Lyrics

Your words are quick, and they cut so deep

 The walls go up, waiting here, wishing here, wishing here, waiting

 You forget I know your tender spots, I can hurt you too,

 But I'm the one loving you, so come on and love me

 

 [Chorus:]

 Lay down your arms

 Lay down, down, down, down

 Why'd you want to go

 And shoot love to the ground

 Lay down your arms

 Lay down, down, down, down

 Lay with me

 

 So close then the moment's shattered, like nothing mattered

 Pushing me, pulling you, pulling me, pushing

 Don't want to tear our love apart, I want to give my heart

 Can't we start living here, giving

 

 [Chorus]

 

 So we are in love, so we are at war

 But we can be on the same side

 [repeat chorus]
