Do you know what's worth f ighting for
When it's not worth d ying for?
Does it take your b reath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh o ut the pride
And you look for a p lace to hide?
Did someone break your h eart inside?
You're in ruins
On e, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, g ive up the fight
On e, 21 guns
Throw up your arms i nto the sky, you and I
When you're at the e nd of the road
And you lost all s ense of control
And your thoughts have t aken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on b roken glass
And the hangover d oesn’t pass
Nothing's ever built to last
You’re in ruins
On e, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, g ive up the fight
On e, 21 guns
Throw up your arms i nto the sky, you and I
Did you try to l ive on your own
When you burned down the h ouse and home?
Did you stand too c lose to the fire
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a s tone
When it's time to l ive and let die
And you can't get an o ther try
Something inside this h eart has died
You're in ruins
On e, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, g ive up the fight
On e, 21 guns
Throw up your arms i nto the sky
On e, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, g ive up the fight
On e, 21 guns
Throw up your arms i nto the sky, you and I
