Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away And you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh out the pride? And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins
One, 21 guns Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I
When you're at the end of the road And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass And the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last You're in ruins
One, 21 guns Lay down your arms, give up the fight
 One, 21 guns Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I
Did you try to live on your own
When you burned down the house and home?
 Did you stand too close to the fire
 Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?
When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
 Something inside this heart has died
 You're in ruins
