Lay Down Your Arms Lyrics - Asia

We used to live in a better world 

Where sky and water were free 

We point the finger 

We point the gun 

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 a selfish mind 

Do you want to live here alone? 

[Chorus] 

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 

Such are the sins of humanity 

Dark is the air that we breathe 

A war to hide in society 

Don't close your eyes to deceive 

Too many promises 

Too may tears 

Where does the future lie 

If we burn away the years 

We can make this a better world 

Where sky and water are free 

So give the hand without the gun 

That's the way it will be 

[Chorus]
