Lay Your Weapons Down

Lay Your Weapons Down - Ilse Delange

Produced by：Tofer Brown/Ilse DeLange

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
