Iron Horizon 12

Verse

Four a.m. on Seventh Street

Trench coat zipped against the cold

Pupils wide where the strobes keep flashing

Same four bars they've been teaching us to hold

Windows down so the sub can climb

Chrome pipes rattling off the wall

Some kid's fist is punching thin air now

Trying to keep up with the falling ball

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it stops being just a song

Tell me when the night becomes our name

Blood in the vein where the low end goes on

Is this the edge or is it just the game?

Chorus

Iron horizon, rising through the dark

Every drop like a battle we don't fall from

Hands up higher than any star can mark

Iron horizon, and it never hits at all

Verse 2

Streetlight flickers out for half a beat

Somebody's phone dies on the concrete

Shattered bottle underfoot now

Nobody checking if their shadow's intact

Pipes are screaming like the whole block's breathing

Graffiti mural is a different color tonight

One kid's laughing so hard he might forget

What time it was when this all went right

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it stops being just a song

Tell me when the night becomes our name

Blood in the vein where the low end goes on

Is this the edge or is it just the game?

Chorus

Iron horizon, rising through the dark

Every drop like a battle we don't fall from

Hands up higher than any star can mark

Iron horizon, and it never hits at all

Bridge

Nobody's leaving till the kick hits white

Until the bassline makes the buildings shake

Maybe this is what they call a miracle

Might be falling but I'm not breaking

Chorus

Iron horizon, rising through the dark

Every drop like a battle we don't fall from

Hands up higher than any star can mark

Iron horizon, and it never hits at all
