This is a new recording of this song that was originally on the 1st Naked Hearts album. I wanted to shorten it a bit and speed it up.

Lyrics

Lay Down Your Gun

Lay down your gun
Lay down your gun
For the sake of your mother’s son

Look without eyes
Look without eyes
See from the side of her heart

Hear another voice
Sing another song
Walk another way
Take your brother’s arm

Too many guns
Too many broken hearts

Lay down your gun
