Riftline Current (Version 2)

Verse

Concrete breathes against the skin

Cold metal cuts through the din

Rust on pipes that never break

Iron holds what it will take

Fingers press in cold wet stone

Current runs and pulls me home

No color left to burn away

Only iron light comes back each day

Pre-Chorus

Pull the lever, let it climb

Bend with every wire line

Chorus

Riftline current, lift me high

Iron pulse where I lie

Rust in veins that never sleep

Hold until the daylight creep

Verse

Steel teeth tear a path through bone

Grit like blood on fingers thrown

Copper hums behind the seam

Bends to take what it has claimed

Hips slide smooth into the fold

Iron knows where I am told

Pulse in wrist that used to be

Now it pulls me to the sea

Pre-Chorus

Pull the lever, let it climb

Bend with every wire line

Chorus

Riftline current, lift me high

Iron pulse where I lie

Rust in veins that never sleep

Hold until the daylight creep

Bridge

No end to this long black line

Only iron and I now find

No need for name or face

Just iron pulling at my place

Chorus

Riftline current, lift me high

Iron pulse where I lie

Rust in veins that never sleep

Hold until the daylight creep
