Iron in the Veins (versione 3)

Verse

Grey walls press where the rafters bend

Concrete floor won't let me end

Same four bars that never break

Iron hums through my ribcage

Cold sweat runs down to the beat

Knees lock hard against the heat

Vessel full and ready to burst

Nothing here is going to trust

Pre-Chorus

Hold it close, hold it in

Let the static swallow everything

Count the bars until they stop

Let the iron take what we've got

Chorus

Iron in the veins, moving through the floor

Every step is another door that opens wide

No more waiting for the dawn to break

I am made of metal, I will not shake

Verse

Black pipes rattle overhead like snakes

Hands up high where the current breaks

Neon strobes cut white across my eyes

Nothing but this, nothing else, no skies

Feet keep time with a kick drum's pull

Spine locked rigid, refusing to fall

Every breath is another brick laid down

This is home now, this is all I own

Pre-Chorus

Hold it close, hold it in

Let the static swallow everything

Count the bars until they stop

Let the iron take what we've got

Chorus

Iron in the veins, moving through the floor

Every step is another door that opens wide

No more waiting for the dawn to break

I am made of metal, I will not shake

Bridge

Crown on my forehead, forged from sound

Tide comes in where the silence drowned

Every heartbeat locked to the same machine

Nothing left of me but what it's seen

Chorus

Iron in the veins, moving through the floor

Every step is another door that opens wide

No more waiting for the dawn to break

I am made of metal, I will not shake
