Concrete Pulse Ignition

Verse

Breaker bank clicks in the yard

Copper coil waits for the load

Relay teeth bite on the hour

Substation counts down the code

Pre-Chorus

Who wakes the grid from the floor up

Who feeds the wire its charge

Chorus

Concrete pulse ignition, current finds the vein

Concrete pulse ignition, city takes the strain

Concrete pulse ignition, voltage climbs the frame

Concrete pulse ignition, streets ignite the same

Verse

Transformer hums through the fence

Steam lifts off the switching plate

Cable throat swallows the spark

Grid locks in at half past eight

Pre-Chorus

Who wakes the grid from the floor up

Who feeds the wire its charge

Chorus

Concrete pulse ignition, current finds the vein

Concrete pulse ignition, city takes the strain

Concrete pulse ignition, voltage climbs the frame

Concrete pulse ignition, streets ignite the same

Bridge

Coil

Charge

Relay

Surge

Wire to tower

Tower to street

Street to us

Chorus

Concrete pulse ignition, current finds the vein

Concrete pulse ignition, city takes the strain

Concrete pulse ignition, voltage climbs the frame

Concrete pulse ignition, streets ignite the same
