Steel Pulse Anthem (versione 2)

Verse 1

Six a.m., the city still hums

Steam off rooftops, iron and drum

Concrete holds a hundred pounds

Feet won't stop till the sun comes round

Pre-Chorus

Every window, every streetlamp flickers out of time

I keep my knees bent, count the miles I left behind

Chorus

Run through the city like it's catching fire

Steel pulse in the ribs, higher, higher

Running with a shadow that don't quit

Till the sky turns gold on the other side

Verse 2

Water tower ticking under gray

Smoke from exhaust lines turning white as day

Sirens fade out to birds instead

I'm not tired of what I said

Pre-Chorus

Every window, every streetlamp flickers out of time

I keep my knees bent, count the miles I left behind

Chorus

Run through the city like it's catching fire

Steel pulse in the ribs, higher, higher

Running with a shadow that don't quit

Till the sky turns gold on the other side

Bridge

No more streets to run before the sun comes up

Just my breath and the kick drum's grip

Let the last one down, let it all go free

Nothing left but me and the skyline

Hold the tempo, hold the pace

This is the only place I find space

No gold medal, no clock on the wall

Just the feeling that outlasts them all

Chorus

Run through the city like it's catching fire

Steel pulse in the ribs, higher, higher

Running with a shadow that don't quit

Till the sky turns gold on the other side
