Strain
Initial D Sound Files Vol.2 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come on!
Eye for an eye, is
To call forth death
Well it's time for us
To shake our hands
Make wave all hands
And head downtown
To put and end
To this farce of theirs
For good
Take them down
For good
Wait... take'em out
For good
Here's the chance
For good
Let's go take a chance
Well, it's faith
Their certain bad faith
Air comes in through our mouth
The same we use to shout
Fighting a false democracy
That forces us to carry out
The task
We're all out
No, no, no... no fall-out
There, see the way?
Heading for their heads
I see no brains
To preserve among theirs
Nice cars, nice hair
Nice dress... a niche
Since they all get payed
Then they respond to someone
Who's higher in chain
And that's us
No way out
No, for them no way out




There's a wall
Smash their heads onto it

And that's us
We are their higher authority


No way out
No escape from defeat


No, for them no way out
No escape for them


There's a wall
They are trapped


Smash their heads onto it
Defeat them mercilessly
