A Call To Arms

(album: The Apparition - 2009)

I see your face all tired and weary
From battles fought, lost and won
You take your chances, fuck the consequence
Dive right in with no regrets
No regrets

There's no point to keep your head face down
When all we see and know and feel is temporary
Spread your arms and keep your head held high
Good things are better taken in the less you notice

Witness to a city that never sleeps
Where sins are made then buried
Doesn't matter how deep or hidden
It's always, always there
Hold back the tears, there's little reprieve
If you show you are weak you're accepting defeat
Pick up the pieces and dust yourself off
Then banner away

There's no point to keep your head face down
When all we see and know and feel is temporary
Spread your arms and keep your head held high
Good things are better taken in the less you notice

Heaven won't wait, so don't hold back
Don't waste another minute
You carry all the weight 'coz you think you got no worth
I'll be happy come the moment you've guessed it all
This is your call to arms
So take in all you desire
Heaven won't wait, so don't hold back
Now take it all

There's no point to keep your head face down
When all we see and know and feel is temporary
Spread your arms and keep your head held high
Good things are better taken in the less you notice

Witness to a city that never sleeps
Where sins are made then buried
Doesn't matter how deep or hidden
It's always, always there
Always, always there
Always, always there
