In a moment it's gone
The hope, the hate, the fear, the faith
And you hate the wrong
Crushing underneath the weight, oh, oh
Put down your shield
Lay down your blade
Take off the armor
Before it breaks
I'm not gonna fight, I'm not gonna run
I'll lay down beside you until you see the sun
And I won't surrender, no, I won't succumb
I'm right here beside you until you see the sun
Just one more 'I love you'
Faintly from your fading lips
Whispered like a prayer
Into a bottle set adrift, oh, oh
Put down your weapons
Lay down your throne
The world can't be conquered
By you alone, no
I'm not gonna fight, I'm not gonna run
I'll lay down beside you until you see the sun
And I won't surrender, no, I won't succumb
I'm right here beside you until you see the sun
Don't be ashamed if you're scared
Here is a shoulder to rest your head
Let down your guard
I'm not gonna fight, I'm not gonna run
I'll lay down beside you until you see the sun
And I won't surrender, no, I won't succumb
I'm right here beside you until you see the sun
I'll lay down beside you until you see the sun
I'm right here beside you until you see the sun
