Piston Vein (Version 2)

Verse

Shaft drops down into the floor

Hydraulic fluid feeds the bore

Piston locks then pulls it through

Steel lung breathing black and slow

Pre-Chorus

Where the cylinder fires, the tower shakes

Where the cylinder fires, we take the strain

Chorus

Piston vein, pump the floor

Piston vein, pressure roars

Piston vein, steel to bone

Piston vein, we move alone

Verse

Gantry swings the counterweight

Chain drive grinding, closing gate

Fluid climbs the rusted spine

Gauge needle ticking, redline time

Pre-Chorus

Where the cylinder fires, the tower shakes

Where the cylinder fires, we take the strain

Chorus

Piston vein, pump the floor

Piston vein, pressure roars

Piston vein, steel to bone

Piston vein, we move alone

Bridge

Push

Hold

Release

Push

Hold

Release

Fluid remembers

Every stroke we feed it

Chorus

Piston vein, pump the floor

Piston vein, pressure roars

Piston vein, steel to bone

Piston vein, we move alone
