Iron and the Body Swell (Version 2)

Verse

Steel drum tapping on the bone

Neon cuts the black to chrome

Fists up tight in a steel frame

Nothing gives but the iron's name

Skin pulls taut like wire under pressure

Sweat runs white down the copper mesh

Iron hands hold us in place

No escape from this iron space

Pre-Chorus

Can't break free, no, can't quit now

Pulse is climbing with every blow

Feel it rising up through the floor

Let it carry me till we're done for

Chorus

Iron and the body swell

Iron takes us where we'll go

Feet don't stop when the lights grow

Iron and the body swell

Verse

Cold air hitting lungs that pump

Fists are shaking with what's coming

Every step sends sparks through ground

Nothing breaks, nothing goes down

Pre-Chorus

Can't break free, no, can't quit now

Pulse is climbing with every blow

Feel it rising up through the floor

Let it carry me till we're done for

Chorus

Iron and the body swell

Iron takes us where we'll go

Feet don't stop when the lights grow

Iron and the body swell

Bridge

No name here, no face to claim

Just the iron in my frame

Take what's given, nothing more

Let it move like it wants for

Chorus

Iron and the body swell

Iron takes us where we'll go

Feet don't stop when the lights grow

Iron and the body swell
