Blowdown Phase (versione 2)

Verse 1

Cold steel pipe against the spine

Static humming down the line

Sweat condenses on the beam

Twelve hours running on the steam

Boots stay planted on the grate

Pounding heavy with the weight

Pre-Chorus

Pressure rising in the chest

Not a second left to rest

Watch the dial, hold the speed

This is all the pulse we need

Chorus

Blowdown phase, lock the pace

Keep the motion in the space

Till the white lights cut the room

Drive the pistons through the gloom

Blowdown phase, hold the line

Bleed the pressure out of time

Verse 2

Strobe flash hitting off the wall

No one stumbles, no one falls

Valve released at four a.m.

Cycle sparks and hits again

Rubber burning on cement

Every watt of power spent

Pre-Chorus

Pressure rising in the chest

Not a second left to rest

Watch the dial, hold the speed

This is all the pulse we need

Chorus

Blowdown phase, lock the pace

Keep the motion in the space

Till the white lights cut the room

Drive the pistons through the gloom

Blowdown phase, hold the line

Bleed the pressure out of time

Bridge

Ceiling turns from black to grey

Burn the final volts away

Feel the breaker start to hum

Keep on moving till they come

One more circuit, one more spin

Hold the lock and dig right in

Chorus

Blowdown phase, lock the pace

Keep the motion in the space

Till the white lights cut the room

Drive the pistons through the gloom

Blowdown phase, hold the line

Bleed the pressure out of time
