Iron Tide (version 2)

Verse

Cold iron rising through the floor

Your hand finds mine in the low light

We don't talk about what it means

Just the pulse and the weight of this place

Every step pulls us further in

Where does the current start? Where do we begin?

Something under, something deep

Wakes up when my feet touch steel

You don't look back, you just pull tight

Like the tide was always waiting here tonight

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it climbing from below?

Something older than our names to know?

This isn't love — it's the only thing left.

Nothing else is moving fast enough yet.

Chorus

Iron tide, pull me under

Iron tide, don't let go till the morning

Cold floor rising up through my skin

You and I are the same dark water we're swimming in

Verse 2

Your palm burns against my wrist

Two hearts locked to a heavy beat.

The room goes black and then it's white

Same pulse running under our feet.

No names here, no faces in the grey.

Just this current pulling us away from yesterday.

Nothing left but the pull of this ground.

Nothing above, nothing below sound.

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it climbing from below?

Something older than our names to know?

This isn't love — it's the only thing left.

Nothing else is moving fast enough yet.

Chorus

Iron tide, pull me under

Iron tide, don't let go till the morning

Cold floor rising up through my skin

You and I are the same dark water we're swimming in

Bridge

No sky here — just steel and steam

Nothing to give, nothing to break.

Every step feels like a door closing slow.

We're not leaving until this floor decides where to go.

It's not me, it's not you — it's something beneath the floor.

Something older than both of us — that's what we're for.

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it climbing from below?

Something older than our names to know?

This isn't love — it's the only thing left.

Nothing else is moving fast enough yet.

Chorus

Iron tide, pull me under

Iron tide, don't let go till the morning

Cold floor rising up through my skin

You and I are the same dark water we're swimming in

Outro

Under it all, still standing

Still holding hands until it's day again
