Cm
Speechless, but the answers in my mouth
Cm
Breathless, the emotions seeping out
Cm
Beyond my control
Cm
You spoke to my silence, Why so cold?

Gm
You ask for peace, I give you war
Gm
While you let go, I hold too tightly
Gm
I take my aim, you hit the floor,
Gm                Cm
I'm not ready to, lay down my arms

Cm
Cracking, my defences breaking down
Cm
The unravelling, of a rope I put around me
Cm
You won't take no for an answer 


Gm
You ask for peace, I give you war
Gm
While you let go, I hold too tightly
Gm
I take my aim, you hit the floor
Gm                 Cm
I'm not ready to, lay down my arms

Cm
I didn't know I was missing out, 'til you lost and I, I won
Cm
You made me realise my incompleteness alone
Cm
Can no longer live by candlelight
Cm                        Gm
When you show me the sun, ohh

Gm
You ask for peace, I give you war
Gm
While you let go, I hold too tightly
Gm
I take my aim, you hit the floor,
Gm                Cm
I'm not ready to, lay down my arms
