Brace

Birds of Tokyo

Pull the arrows from your heart
Wipe your bleeding hands on virgin cloth
But don't forget

The days we suffer soon will pass
The future leads us down an unknown path
With no regret

And the most important thing
Is to forgive but not forget
We're not servants who wait to be broken in
By someone else's hand

Brace for the end (Destroy it all)
Of everyday disillusion (Destroy it all)
We're seconds away (Destroy it all)
From critical retribution (Destroy it all)

Light a torch and burn the flag
Paint the open sky in smoke and ash
But don't forget

Soon the rain will drown the rats
With all the flooding tears of those who passed
With no regret

And the most important thing
Is to forgive but not forget
We're not servants who wait to be broken in
By someone else's hand

Brace for the end (Destroy it all)
Of everyday disillusion (Destroy it all)
We're seconds away (Destroy it all)
From critical retribution (Destroy it all)

Of all important things
Never forget your name
Of all important things
Remember all their sins
Defy erase rebuild
Not as servants but as kings

Brace for the end (Destroy it all)
Of everyday disillusion (Destroy it all)
We're seconds away (Destroy it all)
From critical retribution (Destroy it all)

Brace for the end
