Iron Tide of the Crown (Version 2)

Verse

Crown above the iron gate

Salt on my wrist like solder and fate

Steel bars catching the beam down low

Tides turn fast when the bassline grows

I lost count of the hours we stand

Water rising where my feet land

Every pulse is a wave at the door

Nothing left to pray for, nothing more

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climbing up from below

Feel it breaking what I hold

Push against the crown before it pulls you under

Nowhere left to go but down now

Hold on tight or let go, the tide decides that for you

Feel it rising, feel it open wide

Chorus

Iron tide of the crown above

Sweat and salt turn into something I love

Let go of the edge before you drown in this

Iron tide of the crown, iron tide of the crown

Verse 2

Bassline splitting every beam apart

Salt on my lips like the king's own heart

The crowd moves forward as one man deep

Nothing left to hold onto but the floor and keep

Grip it tight then let it break loose

Watch the water rise to your knees

Steel is warm now, it's holding still

Held back only by the weight of will

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climbing up from below

Feel it breaking what I hold

Push against the crown before it pulls you under

Nowhere left to go but down now

Hold on tight or let go, the tide decides that for you

Feel it rising, feel it open wide

Chorus

Iron tide of the crown above

Sweat and salt turn into something I love

Let go of the edge before you drown in this

Iron tide of the crown, iron tide of the crown

Bridge

No crown above, no iron gate

Just the current running through my chest again

Nothing left to lose but everything I've got

This is how we break it, never let it stop

Chorus

Iron tide of the crown above

Sweat and salt turn into something I love

Let go of the edge before you drown in this

Iron tide of the crown, iron tide of the crown
