Anode Strike (Version 2)

Verse 1

Cables run across the floor

Lock the bolt and brace the door

Subwoofer hits the concrete hard

Static crawls across the yard

Jaw is set, the eyes go blind

Leave the waking world behind

Pre-Chorus

Pressure climbs against the skull

Volt meter zeroed, signal full

Nowhere left to step or turn

Let the heavy copper burn

Chorus

Anode strike, hit the plate

Feed the charge and seal the gate

No more blood, no more skin

Anode strike, pull me in

Anode strike, hit the floor

Nothing less and nothing more

Verse 2

Blackened walls and strobe decay

Wash the human parts away

Serrated kick, relentless track

Past the point of turning back

Sweat condenses on the beam

Caught inside the single seam

Pre-Chorus

Pressure climbs against the skull

Volt meter zeroed, signal full

Nowhere left to step or turn

Let the heavy copper burn

Chorus

Anode strike, hit the plate

Feed the charge and seal the gate

No more blood, no more skin

Anode strike, pull me in

Anode strike, hit the floor

Nothing less and nothing more

Bridge

Break the circuit, cut the trace

Strip the memory from the face

No more past, no safe ground

Only iron, only sound

Total collapse, pure machine

Lost inside the space between

Chorus

Anode strike, hit the plate

Feed the charge and seal the gate

No more blood, no more skin

Anode strike, pull me in

Anode strike, hit the floor

Nothing less and nothing more
