[Intro]
[Verse]
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 cirtance
Do we stand a chance to rise above it all
But I feel so small
[Chorus]
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
[Verse]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
* *
I wanna rise above it all
* *
Will you hold me, just hold me
[Chorus]
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
