about

Lay Down Your Arms. It's a call to peace. And a call to take the harder road.

lyrics

Lay down your arms and I’ll lay down mine. Let’s see what’s on the inside.
Open your head up wide, and we’ll be fine, fine.

Why is the harder road always the way to go?
Drop your heavy load and take the harder road.
Lay down your arms. Lay down your arms.

Thursday was sunny at the start (yeah I need my sunglasses), with clouds increasing through the daytime (now I don’t need my sunglasses).
And by the evening it was dark. I should’ve seen it coming.

Why is the harder road always the way to go?
Drop your heavy load and take the harder road.
Lay down your arms. Lay down your arms.

Why don’t you come to, come to me here by the creek-side.
I’ve got these secrets that you know. And I’ve been here waiting.

Why is the harder road always the way to go?
Drop your heavy load and take the harder road.

Drop your heavy load and take the harder road.
