Iron Crown Under Ice (version 2)

Verse

Steel door clicks shut behind me now

Ice in the glass, I don't know how

Bare feet on concrete, the pulse is low

Every heartbeat a strike from below

Rings of frost climb up off my skin

Cold air cuts where the dark gives in

Nobody speaks but everyone moves like one

Frozen hands lift when the kick drum comes

Pre-Chorus

Iron weight pulling at my chest now

Let go, let it bury us both under

Something ancient wakes beneath this floor

I feel the crown rising, I feel it more

Chorus

Iron crown under ice tonight

My name disappears in the low light

Rings of frost on every face

This is where we lose ourselves in place

Verse 2

Bubbles rise from a glass gone grey

Every shoulder pressed to the same way

The current pulls me deeper, I don't fight it now

Steel floor holds what my blood won't allow

Eyes closed tight against the glare

Crown of ice on every head there

I lost count where the room begins and ends

Nothing here is meant to understand or mend

Pre-Chorus

Iron weight pulling at my chest now

Let go, let it bury us both under

Something ancient wakes beneath this floor

I feel the crown rising, I feel it more

Chorus

Iron crown under ice tonight

My name disappears in the low light

Rings of frost on every face

This is where we lose ourselves in place

Bridge

No names here, only the ring

Every hand locked into this swing

The cold holds tight and never lets go

I am the iron, the iron knows

Chorus

Iron crown under ice tonight

My name disappears in the low light

Rings of frost on every face

This is where we lose ourselves in place
