Tear Down the Bridges
IMAScore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drain all the rivers
Burn down the town hall
There are no winners
Reload the weapons
Sharpen the scissors
Cut off the fetters
And everyone's screaming
When the lights go out
The lyrics of IMAscore's song Tear Down the Bridges convey a call to take radical actions against the current state of affairs. The first two lines suggest a complete destruction of any means of communication, of any way of crossing between territories, and of any source of water. The intention is clearly to isolate a community and make it totally vulnerable. The third verse talks about burning down the town hall, which is the symbol of municipal power, of a democratic order. In this case, it represents an oppressive authority that needs to be removed.
The second stanza expresses the idea of a violent revolution. The command "reload the weapons" urges the listeners to prepare themselves for a fight. Then, the "scissors" are sharpened, which could suggest preparation for torture or mutilation. The "fetters" that are cut off might refer to slavery, oppression, or any form of imprisonment. Finally, the "triggers" are pulled, which leads to utter destruction.

Tear down the bridges
Destroy all connections and relationships
Drain all the rivers
Eliminate all sources of life
Burn down the town hall
Eradicate government and authority
There are no winners
No one will benefit or succeed
Reload the weapons
Prepare for violence and aggression
Sharpen the scissors
Get ready to sever ties and relationships
Cut off the fetters
Break free from confinement and oppression
Pull all the triggers
Cause destruction and harm
And everyone's screaming
There is chaos and terror all around
When the lights go out
In the moment of darkness and despair
