| I knew
|
| When you told me you don’t wanna go home tonight
|
| And you tried to just shrug it off when I asked you why
|
| Somebody hurt you
|
| Somebody hurt you
|
| But you’re here by my side
|
| And I knew
|
| 'Cause I can recall when I was the one in your seat
|
| I still got the scars and they occasionally bleed
|
| 'Cause somebody hurt me
|
| Somebody hurt me
|
| But I’m staying alive
|
| And I can tell
|
| When you get nervous
|
| You think being yourself
|
| Means being unworthy
|
| And it’s hard to love
|
| With a heart that’s hurting
|
| But if you want to go out dancing
|
| I know a place (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can go (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Just give me trust and watch what’ll happen
|
| 'Cause I know (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can run (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Don’t you be afraid of love and affection
|
| Just lay down your weapon
|
| Right now
|
| It’s like you’re carrying all the weight of your past
|
| I see all your bruises, yellow, dark blue, and black
|
| But baby a bruise is, only your body
|
| Tryna keep you intact
|
| So right now
|
| I think we should go get drunk on cheap wine
|
| I think we should hop on the purple line
|
| 'Cause maybe our purpose
|
| Is to never give up when we’re on the right track
|
| And I can tell
|
| When you get nervous
|
| You think being yourself
|
| Means being unworthy
|
| And it’s hard to love
|
| With a heart that’s hurting
|
| But if you want to go out dancing
|
| I know a place (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can go (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Just give me trust and watch what’ll happen
|
| 'Cause I know (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can run (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Don’t you be afraid of love and affection
|
| Just lay down your weapon
|
| (Lay down your weapon)
|
| They will try to make you unhappy
|
| Don’t let them
|
| They will try to tell you you’re not free
|
| Don’t listen
|
| I, I know a place where you don’t need protection
|
| Even if it’s only in my imagination
|
| I, I know a place we can go
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Just give me trust and anything can happen
|
| 'Cause I know (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can go (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Just give me trust and watch what’ll happen
|
| 'Cause I know (ooh)
|
| I know a place we can stay (yeah)
|
| Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon
|
| Lay down their weapon
|
| Don’t you be afraid of love and affection
|
| Just lay down your weapon |
