Oxide Loop (versione 2)

Verse 1

Heavy iron, push the bar

Cold exhaust around the car

Sweat dries stiff against my throat

Gravel biting through my coat

Ear drums hum with dying low

Tarmac slick with amber glow

Rhythm locked inside the tread

Pale sun creeping overhead

Pre-Chorus

Blinding sky

White and raw

Iron teeth

Freezing jaw

Watch it break

Breathe it in

Chorus

Oxide loop, rust and wire

Cold horizon catching fire

Oxide loop, steel and gray

Basement opens to the day

Verse 2

Amber streetlights flicker out

Quiet rising from the doubt

Steam rolls off the sewer grate

Morning strikes the iron plate

Shadows stretch across the curb

Pulse that nothing can disturb

Keep the kick drum in the chest

No one asking for the rest

Pre-Chorus

Blinding sky

White and raw

Iron teeth

Freezing jaw

Watch it break

Breathe it in

Chorus

Oxide loop, rust and wire

Cold horizon catching fire

Oxide loop, steel and gray

Basement opens to the day

Bridge

Silver film on every hood

Standing where the speakers stood

Leave the dark behind the glass

Watch the yellow transit pass

Lock the pulse inside the skin

Daylight pulls the shutters in

Chorus

Oxide loop, rust and wire

Cold horizon catching fire

Oxide loop, steel and gray

Basement opens to the day
