Weapons (Stripped) [Lost Recording #3]
[Verse 1]
Something don't quite
Quite feel right
I want you to know
That everyday I always say
I wish you'd come
Home
Your lips are moving fast
I sit back and try to act like
Nothings wrong
Your words are weapons now
You pick me up just to shoot me down
You move slow with your hair pulled back
I speak low with my hand on your back
I am the calm before your storm


[Chorus]
All I ever long for now
Is to keep you safe and sound
Take out all your weapons baby
And lay them on the ground
Don't fire
Baby lay your weapons down
You're on fire
I don't wanna put you out


[Verse 2]
Baby I don't wanna fight
When the feeling is right
And you're burning within
You're the fire beneath my skin
One night two broken minds
Three steps back and I realize something wrong
Your words are bullets now
Your finger on the trigger trying to take me down, oh no
You move slow but your heart beats fast
I speak low I thought I told you that
I'm gonna love you through this storm


[Chorus]
All I ever long for now
Is to keep you safe and sound
Take out all your weapons baby
And lay them on the ground
Don't fire
Baby lay your weapons down
You're on fire
I don't wanna put you out


[Outro]
You move slow I speak low
Thought I told you that I'm gonna love you through this storm
All I ever long for now
Is to keep you safe and sound
Take out all your weapons baby
And lay them on the ground
Don't fire
Baby lay your weapons down
You're on fire
I don't wanna put you out
Ohh, yeah
I don't wanna put you out
