Iron Under Water (النسخة 2)

Intro

Cold river, grey sky

(Hei!) Cold river, grey sky

Iron under water

(Hold it!) Iron under water

Verse 1

Rouen bells and frost on the stone

A priest's hand heavy on my collarbone

Salt on my lips, oil on my brow

They want a new name, they want it now

(Now!)

Pre-Chorus

Down I go (down!)

Up I rise (rise!)

Same cold fire

In the same grey eyes

Chorus

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water (iron!)

River for a crown

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water

Walker won't bow down

Verse 2

The Seine runs black past the longship hulls

Wolves on the prow, gold in the halls

They call me Robert, I answer loud

But Hrólfr's breathing under the white gown

Two tongues clash inside my chest

A northern wind against the west

(West!)

Pre-Chorus

Down I go (down!)

Up I rise (rise!)

Same cold fire

In the same grey eyes

Chorus

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water (iron!)

River for a crown

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water

Walker won't bow down

Bridge – half-time chant

Hrólfr (Robert!)

Robert (Hrólfr!)

One breath, two names

Same cold water

Hrólfr (Robert!)

Robert (Hrólfr!)

One breath, two names

Same cold water

Final Chorus

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water (iron!)

River for a crown

Iron under water (iron!)

Iron never drowns

Iron under water

Walker won't bow down

Outro

Cold river, grey sky

(Ja!) Iron under water
