Verse 1
Heavy iron on the latch
Cold air hits the open scratch
Black room left behind the wall
Ringing ears against the fall
Pupils narrow in the gray
Ten hours washed away
Tarmac cooling on the street
Rumble underneath the feet
Pre-Chorus
Power down the sub
Step out of the club
Morning breaks the seam
Cut the strobe machine
Chorus
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Frozen sweat and static wire
Turning asphalt into fire
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Low hum, yellow sky
Keep the tempo till you die
Verse 2
Steam is rising from the grate
Six-fifteen at the gate
Fluorescent sun begins to hum
Echo of the kick and drum
Glass reflects the silver coat
Jaw is tight around the throat
Shadows sharpen on the stone
Moving outward on my own
Pre-Chorus
Power down the sub
Step out of the club
Morning breaks the seam
Cut the strobe machine
Chorus
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Frozen sweat and static wire
Turning asphalt into fire
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Low hum, yellow sky
Keep the tempo till you die
Bridge
No sleep inside the bone
Just the circuit and the stone
Daylight pressing on the skin
Where the outside rushes in
Signal clear, pulse awake
Watch the pale horizon break
Chorus
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Frozen sweat and static wire
Turning asphalt into fire
Walk into the cathode grid
Burn out what the basement hid
Low hum, yellow sky
Keep the tempo till you die
