Iron Crown Under Skin (versione 2)

Verse

Iron ribs beneath my chest

Every cell runs on the rest

Pulse beats in where it's sealed

Steel heart, mine is healed

Skin remembers what the mind forgot

Nerves rewired to a single thought

Move or die, I don't decide

The iron crown decides for me

I wear it now like a second skin

Beneath the pulse of every vein

Every cell runs on the same machine

Hands go up where hands used to be

Iron crown beneath my sleeve

Nothing left but what the iron keeps

No name here, no face, no sleep

Just the beat, just the beat, just the beat

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb through every bone

Every pulse a single tone

Lose myself in where I'm found

Lose myself in the iron sound

Chorus

Iron crown beneath my skin

I am made to move within

No heartbeat left of me at all

Only what the iron calls

Iron crown beneath my skin

This is how I wear it in

Every step, every breath, one single tone

I don't remember who I was before the crown

Verse 2

Cold hands lift where mine once lay

Fingers gone but the current stays

Nerve by nerve the iron claims

Nothing left to call me mine

The room turns grey and then it's gold

Every body moving as a whole

One pulse, one breath, no name

Just the crown and all its flame

I forget my face before the light

Forget how far I fell from here

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb through every bone

Every pulse a single tone

Lose myself in where I'm found

Lose myself in the iron sound

Chorus

Iron crown beneath my skin

I am made to move within

No heartbeat left of me at all

Only what the iron calls

Iron crown beneath my skin

This is how I wear it in

Every step, every breath, one single tone

I don't remember who I was before the crown

Bridge

Was I born or wired here

Doesn't matter now, just clear

The pulse runs thick through every vein

No heartbeat left to name its pain

Beneath the floor this current runs

Through the crowd where my body's lost

Every chest beats with a single drum

One iron crown for what it costs

Chorus

Iron crown beneath my skin

I am made to move within

No heartbeat left of me at all

Only what the iron calls

Iron crown beneath my skin

This is how I wear it in

Every step, every breath, one single tone

I don't remember who I was before the crown

Outro

Iron keeps its hold

Iron holds its own

Skin remembers nothing now

But the current stays on
