Pneumatic Hymn 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Welding torch cuts through the smoke

Sweat on leather, four counts choke

Tangle in a web of steel

Every move we take is sealed

Chain link shadows cross our eyes

Knees bent low beneath the sirens' cry

Rust and static, dark and deep

We find our rhythm where the walls would creep

Pre-Chorus

Feet on concrete, hands to heat

Nothing moving that's not on beat

Let it build inside your chest

Before we lose ourselves in this mess

Chorus

Pneumatic hymn, take us down

Pneumatic hymn, lock us round

Breathe the fumes into the sound

Pneumatic hymn, no way out of here now

Verse 2

Scaffolding rises through the light

Same four beats like a locked-in fight

Every step we make is not our own

We're running on the rhythm alone

Pipes in ice run hot and wet

Bassline hums inside the furnace set

Steam off metal, darkening fast

Nothing left that's not part of this cast

Pre-Chorus

Feet on concrete, hands to heat

Nothing moving that's not on beat

Let it build inside your chest

Before we lose ourselves in this mess

Chorus

Pneumatic hymn, take us down

Pneumatic hymn, lock us round

Breathe the fumes into the sound

Pneumatic hymn, no way out of here now

Bridge

No door to open, no ground to find

Just this hum and this four-count grind

Skin remembers what the mind forgets

Every step we take is part of it all yet

Chorus

Pneumatic hymn, take us down

Pneumatic hymn, lock us round

Breathe the fumes into the sound

Pneumatic hymn, no way out of here now
