One play left in a played out playroom
The ink had stained the pages blue
One last call hail Mary pass wasn't much
Buy its the best that I the best these tired eyes could do
We've been at arms so long
Do we know what we're fighting for now.
If you'd lay your weapons down
Just for the night.
Wed take back the ground
We lost in the fight
Lay your weapons down
Throw down your gate.
I know there's stil time
Before it's too late to turn it all around.
If you'd lay your weapons down
All of these medals and faded commendation letters
Never meant that much to me
I know soldier's are paid to act and not paid to think
But I gotta think of something fast.
Put down a communication line that'll last
Get some feet on the ground
If you lay your weapons down
Just for the night.
We'd take back the ground
We lost In the fight
Lay your weapons down
Throw down your gate
I know there's time
Before it's too late to turn it all around.
You can lay your weapons down.
