Songtexte Lay Down Your Arms - ASH

We used to live in a better world
Where sky and water were free
We point the finger, we point the gun, yeah
Is that the way it should be?
We rape the land and we tear the skin
Burn the blood in the stone
To fuel the fire of the selfish mind
Do you want to live here alone? Come on
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms, ooh
Such are the sins of humanity
Dark is the air that we breathe
A war to hide in society, no
Don't close your eyes to deceive
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your gun
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms, oh, ooh
Too many promises
Too may tears
Where does the future lie
If we burn away the years, years?
Listen, they can make this a better world
Where sky and water are free
So give a hand without the gun, ow
Is that' the way it will be, no
Lay down your arms, surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms, remember
No force, you'd better lay down your arms
Lay down your gun
