Lyrics
[verse]
Do you still believe in the war you're fighting
Do you still remember why you're standing here
Every wound you're wearing, every scar you're hiding
Was it worth the silence, worth the fear
[verse]
You've been swinging at the shadows on the wall
Throwing punches at a ghost that isn't there
Maybe it's the moment that you let it fall
Maybe it's the moment that you show you care
[chorus]
Lay it down, lay the weapons down
Let the fighting stop, let the silence sound
You don't have to lose to know you've won
Put away the noise, put away the guns
[verse]
I've seen you build a fortress out of pride
Guarding every doorway, guarding every part
But nobody can win a war inside
When the only enemy is your own heart
[chorus]
Lay it down, lay the weapons down
Let the fighting stop, let the silence sound
You don't have to lose to know you've won
Put away the noise, put away the guns
[bridge]
When it's all been said, when it's all been done
Will you still be standing, will you still be one
Piece of who you started, or a different name
Either way, you don't have to play the game
[chorus]
Lay it down, lay the weapons down
Let the fighting stop, let the silence sound
You don't have to lose to know you've won
Put away the noise, put away the guns
