Cold Cathode (Version 2)

Verse 1

Concrete dust and heavy air

Cables humming, live and bare

Through the smoke I see you lean

Strobe is flashing split and clean

Ten feet back against the wall

Locking in before the fall

Pre-Chorus

Kick drum hitting at the chest

Crowd is crushing east and west

Step into the narrow beam

Tear the dark along the seam

Chorus

Cold cathode, lock the frame

You and me without a name

Cold cathode, pull me in

Iron pulse against the skin

Verse 2

Sweat along your collarbone

Neither of us on our own

Fingers graze against my sleeve

Nothing left to make us leave

Match my breath and take the hit

Where the heavy shadows split

Pre-Chorus

Kick drum hitting at the chest

Crowd is crushing east and west

Step into the narrow beam

Tear the dark along the seam

Chorus

Cold cathode, lock the frame

You and me without a name

Cold cathode, pull me in

Iron pulse against the skin

Bridge

Eye to eye

Chest to chest

Cut the noise

Kill the rest

Humming tube

Voltage high

No more ground

No more sky

Chorus

Cold cathode, lock the frame

You and me without a name

Cold cathode, pull me in

Iron pulse against the skin
