Colder Than Steel (версия 2)

Intro

Steel city never sleeps

Verse

Grey light through the crack in steel

Engine hums like a living hell

Pipes of smoke rise straight into the cold

Cold water runs where the blood should hold

Concrete streets are carved from granite and glass

Every face I pass is someone who won't last

Chorus

This city don't care if you live or die

Colder than steel, colder than steel in my eyes

Nobody holds hands through a January freeze

Just the hum of engines under concrete trees

This city don't care if you live or die

So I'm walking anyway through a January sky

Verse

Rust on every rail where the light trains pass

Steam off exhaust stacks that never fall apart at last

Every voice is muffled to a single low drone

Frost along my collarbone, skin turned into stone

I found your glove in an alleyway with a hundred more

Somebody's mother wept for you before

Chorus

This city don't care if you live or die

Colder than steel, colder than steel in my eyes

Nobody holds hands through a January freeze

Just the hum of engines under concrete trees

This city don't care if you live or die

So I'm walking anyway through a January sky

Bridge

Maybe it's not the cold that breaks you

Maybe it's just learning how to walk through

No one's holding my hand, no one ever will

I'm still moving because I have nothing left to lose but my will

Chorus

This city don't care if you live or die

Colder than steel, colder than steel in my eyes

Nobody holds hands through a January freeze

Just the hum of engines under concrete trees

This city don't care if you live or die

So I'm walking anyway through a January sky
