Stitched into steel 2 (version 2)

Verse

Ivory keys slide across the floor

Rust in your palm where you held before

Weld seams burning from the stage to your spine

Current running true where the iron line aligns

Sweat turns cold against the pipe rail wall

This is the only language I know at all

Pre-Chorus

Hold my weight on your shoulder plate

Pull it tight, don't let go

Chorus

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Moving together like one machine alone

Stitched into steel and iron bone

We do not break until we're done

Bodies locked inside a single frame

No escape from this iron claim

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Together till the lights go down

One lock, one key, no way to come unstitched

Stitched into steel, moving as one

Verse

Your palm prints on my back like proof of trust

This is the only promise I make to you at first

Bolts holding tight through every shift

Every step a test of our own lift

Cold metal breath along your collarbone

You are not leaving till this song is done

Pre-Chorus

Hold my weight on your shoulder plate

Pull it tight, don't let go

Chorus

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Moving together like one machine alone

Stitched into steel and iron bone

We do not break until we're done

Bodies locked inside a single frame

No escape from this iron claim

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Together till the lights go down

One lock, one key, no way to come unstitched

Stitched into steel, moving as one

Bridge

Not flesh, not blood — only metal and wire

Nothing breaking but the speakers' fire

Every heartbeat turned to iron time

We'll be running long after we're left behind

Chorus

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Moving together like one machine alone

Stitched into steel and iron bone

We do not break until we're done

Bodies locked inside a single frame

No escape from this iron claim

Stitched into steel and iron bone

Together till the lights go down

One lock, one key, no way to come unstitched

Stitched into steel, moving as one
