Concrete Arteries

Verse

Valve wheel turns beneath the street

Steam finds the seam and climbs

Manhole breathes a white exhale

Pressure counts its own time

Pre-Chorus

Who keeps the current fed below

Who keeps the whole grid warm

Chorus

Concrete arteries, steam behind the wall

Concrete arteries, feed the city's crawl

Concrete arteries, pressure never sleeps

Concrete arteries, heat is what it keeps

Verse

Boiler drum locked in the dark

Copper vein hums the load

Gauge needle leans against the red

Joint expands along the road

Pre-Chorus

Who keeps the current fed below

Who keeps the whole grid warm

Chorus

Concrete arteries, steam behind the wall

Concrete arteries, feed the city's crawl

Concrete arteries, pressure never sleeps

Concrete arteries, heat is what it keeps

Bridge

Valve

Turn

Steam

Burn

Pipe to pipe

Never learn

Chorus

Concrete arteries, steam behind the wall

Concrete arteries, feed the city's crawl

Concrete arteries, pressure never sleeps

Concrete arteries, heat is what it keeps
