Bleach the dark, take the shift

Verse 1

Heavy steel. Exit door.

Leave the bass upon the floor.

Steam is rising from the grate.

Six a.m. behind the gate.

Tinnitus in stereo.

Nowhere left for us to go.

Cold wind on a sweat-soaked neck.

Walking off the signal wreck.

Pre-Chorus

Look up, the sky is white.

Strip the shadow from the sight.

Frequency begins to bend.

This is where the cycles end.

Chorus

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Bleach the dark, take the shift

Sunlight hits the static eyes

Low-end dead against the sky

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Cold ground under morning mist

Verse 2

Broken glass along the curb.

Silence that the cabs disturb.

Pupils wide against the glare.

Diesel exhaust in the air.

Jacket zipped against the chill.

Heart rate locked at peak-time still.

Shadows stretch across the lane.

Wipe the strobe out of the brain.

Pre-Chorus

Look up, the sky is white.

Strip the shadow from the sight.

Frequency begins to bend.

This is where the cycles end.

Chorus

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Bleach the dark, take the shift

Sunlight hits the static eyes

Low-end dead against the sky

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Cold ground under morning mist

Bridge

Night was pure.

Day is raw.

Reset under nature's law.

Kill the monitor. Kill the hum.

Wait until the shadows come.

Step forward into the grey.

Burn the wire. Face the day.

Chorus

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Bleach the dark, take the shift

Sunlight hits the static eyes

Low-end dead against the sky

Cathode drift

Cathode drift

Cold ground under morning mist
