Steel Lung Transit (wersja 2)

Verse

Grate under boot, the tunnel exhales

Steam rides the rail where the platform ends

Vent stacks open, the city coughs

Diesel breath through a concrete throat

Pre-Chorus

Down where the air gets pushed and pressed

Down where the system takes its breath

Chorus

Steel lung transit, in and out

Steel lung transit, breathe the route

Steel lung transit, in and out

Tunnel fills me, tunnel breathes me out

Verse

Fan belt turns and the shaft goes cold

Piston lungs pump the platform floor

Every train a gasp through the dark

Every stop a held-in breath

Pre-Chorus

Down where the air gets pushed and pressed

Down where the system takes its breath

Chorus

Steel lung transit, in and out

Steel lung transit, breathe the route

Steel lung transit, in and out

Tunnel fills me, tunnel breathes me out

Bridge

Inhale, the doors slide shut

Exhale, the doors pull back

Lungs of rivet, lungs of rust

Never rest, never slack

I move because the tunnel moves

Tunnel moves because I move

Chorus

Steel lung transit, in and out

Steel lung transit, breathe the route

Steel lung transit, in and out

Tunnel fills me, tunnel breathes me out
