Iron Under Pressure (Version 2)

Verse

Iron in the vein where blood should run

Tide comes up before the sun has dawn

Bones no longer hold what's left of me

Floor's a second heartbeat in my chest

Pre-Chorus

Something old is pulling back to rise

I can feel it crawling up through bones

Chorus

Iron under pressure, rising from the bone

This isn't mine to own

Iron under pressure, crushing every stone

Push it out of me alone

Verse 2

Crown's a weight that wasn't meant for skin

Steel rusts softer than the heart within

Hands on the railing now I'm starting to slide

Nothing left but gravity and pride

Pre-Chorus

Something old is pulling back to rise

I can feel it crawling up through bones

Chorus

Iron under pressure, rising from the bone

This isn't mine to own

Iron under pressure, crushing every stone

Push it out of me alone

Bridge

No name for this skin now

Not mine, not yours, just worn away

Floor gives a little, ceiling sways

Same weight climbing, same way

Chorus

Iron under pressure, rising from the bone

This isn't mine to own

Iron under pressure, crushing every stone

Push it out of me alone
