Steel Crown (version 2)

Verse

Iron crown on a wire frame

Sparks where the light goes numb

Hands up in a heavy crowd

Losing count of the rooms

Crown pulls tight to my skull

Every face turns to steel

Kick drum wears my ribs thin

Underneath, I still feel

Pre-Chorus

Cold metal under skin

Nothing left but the crown and me

Iron breathing in my ear

Static is all I see

Chorus

Steel crown on a wire frame

Sparks where the light goes numb

I lose myself inside the crowd tonight

Underneath, I'm still here — steel crown

Verse

Your hand finds mine through the iron haze

Two faces lost in one machine

Black smoke curls around our wrists

Same current running through us both

Chain of lights on the wall cracks open

Floor gives way beneath my feet

Iron hands pull me under water

Nothing but static left to breathe

Pre-Chorus

Cold metal under skin

Nothing left but the crown and me

Iron breathing in my ear

Static is all I see

Chorus

Steel crown on a wire frame

Sparks where the light goes numb

I lose myself inside the crowd tonight

Underneath, I'm still here — steel crown

Bridge

No name on this wire head

Just iron pulling through my chest

Every face in the room is mine now

Crowd dissolves into one breath

Chorus

Steel crown on a wire frame

Sparks where the light goes numb

I lose myself inside the crowd tonight

Underneath, I'm still here — steel crown

Outro

Steel crown still on my head

Nothing left but static now
