Lay Down Your Sword

Lay your sword on the ground
The brave at the bold
Well they’ve all fallen down
And I think that this cause
We’ve been holding out for
Well it died
And here are the things that were left
Shirts that you wore
Letters I sent
But oh what becomes
Of the things that belonged
Just to 'us'
You still have that locket
You promised to fill
And I think I know now
You never will
And so now go
Back in to your life
I’ll fall down in to mine
Get used to the silence
Tell myself that I’m fine
When were you ever so tired
Screaming your words at the wall
Who were you trying to reach girl
Who were you doing it for?
Come on lay down your sword.
And thy will
Be done
But it’s still a constant surprise
And something was broken
And something was healed
But there were no hero’s
Left on this field
