I walked along the road today and saw myself in the tired face and a thousand more look back at me I could almost feel the unity
And the sun rose high above the trees and the birds were singing over me but beneath my feet I felt the sting that was the earth remembering
Lay down, lay down your weapons boy Right now, right now you should've changed the world Under it all, you're not so tough Everyone, everyone just wants to fall in love
And I used to think we're just the same from a different town and with different names Do you remember what we said? "We'll never change," oh did we forget?
Lay down, lay down your weapons boy Right now, right now you should've changed the world Under it all, you're not so tough Everyone, everyone just wants to fall in love
And I walked along to the edge of town and there I threw my burdens down Looking up, at last I found You're never loved if you protect yourself
Lay down, lay down your weapons boy Right now, right now Under it all, you're not so tough Everyone, everyone just wants to fall, to fall in love
Lay down, lay down your weapons boy Right now, right now you should've changed the world Under it all, you're not so tough Everyone, every one of us, just wants to fall
Lay down, lay down your weapons boy Lay down, lay down your weapons boy
