Weapon
Jar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Halleluiah, we can finally hear
It's a miracle we feel anything at all
The things we planted on the worst days of the year
Grow to fingers that rip at the joy
And set our backs against the wall

LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN
LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN
THERE ARE NO ENEMIES IN FRONT OF YOU

Halleluiah, we can finally see
How the bitterness was bruising on our skin
We didn't notice that grace had run so thin
'Till we're falling apart
And the cracks in our hearts let the truth sink in

LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN
LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN
THERE ARE NO ENEMIES IN FRONT OF YOU (repeat)

Halleluiah, we can finally hear
It's a miracle we feel anything at all

So lay your weapons down
There are no enemies in front of you
There are no enemies in front of you

LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN




LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN
LAY YOUR WEAPONS, THERE ARE NO ENEMIES IN FRONT OF YOU (repeat)

Overall Meaning

The song "Weapon" by Jar speaks of a transformation that has taken place within the singer. The lyrics suggest that a certain level of bitterness and resentment had taken root in them, causing them to put up walls and use weapons as a means of defense.

They hint that their former actions were instigated by the negativity that had taken hold but now, the walls have come down, and they are able to perceive that there were never any enemies to begin with.

They encourage the singer to let go of their defensive demeanor and embrace the grace that now surrounds them. The lyrics indicate that this newfound peace is a miracle, and it brings with it a profound sense of gratitude and relief.


Overall, "Weapon" serves as a commentary on the human condition and how our emotions can sometimes lead us to act out of character.
