Lyrics
Put the weapons down
Listen to the sound
When the weapons go silent
It's peaceful all around
Put the weapons down
Take a look around
Hands covered in blood
Where are you bound
If you don't put the weapons down?
Your life is lacking depth
With weapons under your belt
Your life's smelling of death
A bad hand you were dealt
Put the weapons down
Take a look around
Hands covered in blood
Where are you bound
If you don't put the weapons down?
Put the weapons down
Free yourself from the sound
When the blade or bullet flies
And another human dies
Put the weapons down
Take a look around
Hands covered in blood
Where are you bound
If you don't put the weapons down?
What caused your anger and fed your hatred?
Your mind is in danger is your life not sacred?
Put the weapons down
Take a look around
Hands covered in blood
Where are you bound
If you don't put the weapons down?
