Ghosts in the Concrete (Version 2)

Intro

Rising through the city's chest

Verse 1

Concrete shakes beneath my feet

Skyscrapers bow to heavy heat

Steel and smoke and engines growl

Nothing here can hold me small

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising, feel it climb

This is mine, this line of time

One more step, the whole block bends

Every wall that never ends

Chorus

I'm breaking through the iron sky

Burning past where you guys fly

Ghosts in concrete learn to rise

Nothing here can hold my eyes

Verse 2

Rooftops tremble, windows shake

Sparks off steel like a war it makes

City shakes and opens wide

Letting something long inside

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising, feel it climb

This is mine, this line of time

One more step, the whole block bends

Every wall that never ends

Chorus

I'm breaking through the iron sky

Burning past where you guys fly

Ghosts in concrete learn to rise

Nothing here can hold my eyes

Bridge

Not a spark — I am the flame

Not a shadow — I am name

Iron rusts, it does not last

Steel remembers what the blast

Outro

Breaking through the iron sky

I'm breaking through the iron sky

Burning past where you guys fly

Ghosts in concrete learn to rise
