LYRIC FOR SALE

By Justyna Warzecha

Verse 1

They draw new borders on the map,
While mothers hold their children tight.
The world falls into another trap,
And little eyes stay open through the night.

Some count their profits, some count the dead,
While others pray to see another day.
We share one roof above our heads,
Yet watch our dreams get swept away.

Chorus

Lay down your arms, let silence fall,
Let children wake without fear.
No one should have to lose it all,
No more goodbyes, no more tears.

Lay down your arms, let flowers grow,
Where bombs once turned the fields to grey.
Let every broken heart still know,
That peace can find its way someday.

Verse 2

Behind closed doors, they choose our fate,
While families wait for news at dawn.
One word can turn a heart to hate,
And leave a child with someone gone.

No victory lives among the graves,
No medal brings a loved one home.
The innocent are those we fail to save,
While those who suffer stand alone.

Chorus

Lay down your arms, let silence fall,
Let children wake without fear.
No one should have to lose it all,
No more goodbyes, no more tears.

Lay down your arms, let flowers grow,
Where bombs once turned the fields to grey.
Let every broken heart still know,
That peace can find its way someday.

Bridge

How many tears must fall like rain,
Before we learn to understand?
We all feel sorrow, we all feel pain,
No matter where we make our stand.

Final Chorus

Lay down your arms, let silence fall,
Let children wake without fear.
No one should have to lose it all,
No more goodbyes, no more tears.

Lay down your arms, let hatred cease,
Let every child see morning light.
This world deserves a chance for peace,
Not one more war, not one more fight.
