Just give in, let it go surrender it all you know, it's too heavy anyways your arms will break and your back with ache in time, it will swallow you whole So just open your, stubborn, clenched fists lost and rotting recover your heart dust it off and give it a shine because the day's too long for weeping and screaming and this will all be over soon, it will be quick and painless Just be free turn your ***** twisted face to the sun and to the sky and smile, because it's been too long but I know your face, hasn't forgotten how, the wind and rain, will wash it clean and push you forward, let the forces guide you home it won't be long now Doesn't feel good, girl? to give it all up to stop fighting and lay your guns down on the filthy sodden ground let them disolve into the mud, into nothingness you won't need them anymore.

Lay Your Guns Down
Just give in, let it go surrender it all you know, it's too heavy anyways your arms will break and your back with ache in time, it will swallow you whole So just open your, stubborn, clenched fists lost and rotting recover your heart dust it off and give it a shine because the day's too long for weeping and screaming and this will all be over soon, it will be quick and painless Just be free turn your ***** twisted face to the sun and to the sky and smile, because it's been too long but I know your face, hasn't forgotten how, the wind and rain, will wash it clean and push you forward, let the forces guide you home it won't be long now Doesn't feel good, girl? to give it all up to stop fighting and lay your guns down on the filthy sodden ground let them disolve into the mud, into nothingness you won't need them anymore.
