Steel Skin in the Amber Tide (Version 2)

Verse

Iron skin under amber tide

Last light bleeding on the water side

Cold hands open where the current runs

Weight in my chest where the day is done

Pre-Chorus

Deeper now than I can hold

Something rising that won't be told

Every heartbeat pulls me down

Further out into the sound

Chorus

Steel skin in the amber tide

Drifting weightless, losing my grip inside

Nothing left to fight, nothing left to fear

Just the iron and the water drawing near

Verse 2

Salt runs cold across my collarbone

Every breath is heavy as a stone

The crown of light above me tilts

Pulling slow through all that I built

Pre-Chorus

Deeper now than I can hold

Something rising that won't be told

Every heartbeat pulls me down

Further out into the sound

Chorus

Steel skin in the amber tide

Drifting weightless, losing my grip inside

Nothing left to fight, nothing left to fear

Just the iron and the water drawing near

Bridge

Let it pull until I disappear

No ground beneath and no clock here

The current knows a name I've never known

Down where the heavy things are thrown

Outro

Steel skin in the amber tide

Falling soft into the tide
