lyrics

Before all this work is done
We will weep
All must be torn down
We will build again
A people born of fire

Take your part and pick your side
We shall see
All ships rising with the tide
Some will not make it aboard
Drowning on the shore

Disenchanted overtures
Performed with arrows in your bows
The knives inside your voice that sing
The discord you're imagining
Your panic
Your flurries
Your record on repeat
No more space for me

Before all the work is done
Will we still be?
Are we the sacrifice required
To tear down the old empire?
We shall see
