Ferrous Liturgy (Version 2)

Verse

Rust on the rafters, iron in the air

Twelve hundred bodies breathing one long prayer

Kick drum sermon through the black machine

Melt me down to nothing I can name or seen

Pre-Chorus

Feel the floor come up through my feet

Feel the name I had start to leave

Every hinge in me starts to bend

Losing count where I begin

Chorus

Ferrous liturgy, burning through my skin

Ferrous liturgy, let the current in

No more face, no more name, no more me

Just the iron hymn and the ferrous liturgy

Verse

Chain-link shadows on the concrete floor

Same four kick drums, I don't need one more

Sparks off the rail where the dancers grind

Forge me over, leave the old shape behind

Pre-Chorus

Feel the floor come up through my feet

Feel the name I had start to leave

Every hinge in me starts to bend

Losing count where I begin

Chorus

Ferrous liturgy, burning through my skin

Ferrous liturgy, let the current in

No more face, no more name, no more me

Just the iron hymn and the ferrous liturgy

Bridge

Melt it, melt it, pour me through the mold

Nothing left of who I was to hold

Hammer strike on hammer strike again

I was flesh, now I'm iron in the din

Chorus

Ferrous liturgy, burning through my skin

Ferrous liturgy, let the current in

No more face, no more name, no more me

Just the iron hymn and the ferrous liturgy
