Lay Down the Armor

Verse 1 I know I’ve hurt you, I won’t pretend, I’ve seen the cracks where we used to bend. Our home was a battlefield, love caught in the smoke, Words like weapons, hearts nearly broke. I carried my pride like a shield on my chest, But I’m tired of fighting the one I love best. I don’t want to win if it means we both lose, I just want the future I dreamed of with you. Pre-Chorus So take my hand, let the silence fall, We don’t have to be perfect to rebuild it all. Piece by piece, through the tears and the truth, I still see forever when I look at you. Chorus Let’s lay down the armor, let’s open the door, We’ve been through the fire, but we can be more. Let’s heal together, let love lead the way, Turn all this pain into brighter days. My love is genuine, deep as the sea, My devotion is rooted inside of me. Let’s live our dreams, let’s make it through, I still choose us, I still choose you. Verse 2 I know “I’m sorry” can sound worn out, When trust has been shaken by anger and doubt. But I’ll show you in actions, not only in sound, I’ll meet you with softness when storms come around. We can build a home where peace gets to stay, Where love isn’t something we push away. Where laughter comes back and the walls don’t shake, Where two wounded hearts learn how not to break. Pre-Chorus So take my hand, let the past exhale, We are not our worst days, we are not destined to fail. Through every scar, through every bruise, I still see forever when I look at you. Chorus Let’s lay down the armor, let’s open the door, We’ve been through the fire, but we can be more. Let’s heal together, let love lead the way, Turn all this pain into brighter days. My love is genuine, deep as the sea, My devotion is rooted inside of me. Let’s live our dreams, let’s make it through, I still choose us, I still choose you. Bridge No more keeping score, no more cold war nights, No more turning love into who’s wrong or right. Let’s plant something gentle where the hurt used to grow, Let’s become the peace we were praying to know. I’ll be accountable, I’ll learn how to stay, I’ll love you with patience, not just with a flame. And if you’ll meet me somewhere in the middle of this, We can turn survival into tenderness. Final Chorus Let’s lay down the armor, let’s open the door, We’ve been through the fire, but we can be more. Let’s heal together, let love lead the way, Turn all this pain into brighter days. My love is genuine, deep as the sea, My devotion is rooted inside of me. Let’s live our dreams, let’s make it through, I still choose us, I still choose you. Outro I know I’ve hurt you, but I’m here with the truth, My deepest dream is still loving you.
