Beneath the Iron Tide 4

Verse

Iron ceiling pressing down on the floor

Sixteen hours since I crossed the door

Concrete floors have turned to glass and rust

Every shadow wears a version of trust

Sirens fade like they never spoke

The beat still living in my throat

Salt water drips from the window pane

Same grey sky but I'm not insane

Pre-Chorus

The tide turns slow, it pulls me under

I am the wave before the thunder

Feet remember what the mind forgets

Beneath the iron where the day regrets

Chorus

We drown beneath the iron tide

Lost in the current side by side

No land left to pull us back in

Down where the rust runs through our skin

Verse 2

Sirens fade like they never spoke

The beat still living in my throat

Salt water drips from the window pane

Same grey sky but I'm not insane

Every shadow wears a version of trust

I count the hours, I know them by hand

Fifteen more until the black turns white

I can feel the tide start to lift

Pre-Chorus

The tide turns slow, it pulls me under

I am the wave before the thunder

Feet remember what the mind forgets

Beneath the iron where the day regrets

Chorus

We drown beneath the iron tide

Lost in the current side by side

No land left to pull us back in

Down where the rust runs through our skin

Bridge

Let it wash away what's left of me

Salt and steel, no identity

The sun comes up where the black should end

Nothing left but what we went through together

Chorus

We drown beneath the iron tide

Lost in the current side by side

No land left to pull us back in

Down where the rust runs through our skin
