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 --- Lay Your Weapons Down - Ilse DeLange
