Carnival in Chrome 2

Verse 1 – male vocal

Chrome on skin, we dance in chrome

Ferrum lights flash, the engine's home

Bones don't break but the metal does

Every step a hit, every cut through

Your eyes like embers where the dark gets warm

Your hand on mine and the whole night turns form

The sirens wail down the empty street

We're already running, can you feel it beat?

Pre-Chorus – male vocal

Can you hear the motor breathing in our veins?

Rust on rust, we move with every refrain

Chorus – female & male vocals

Carnival in chrome, carnival in chrome

Bones don't break but the metal does, oh

Every step a hit and every beat a home

Chrome on skin, the engine's heart is mine to own

Verse 2 – male vocal

The sparks come falling like a thousand tiny bells

Every window shatters where our shadows dwell

Your fingers burning as we chase the light

Nothing's left but chrome and the long dark night

We'll never stop running 'til the sun comes up

Rust on rust, the whole town turns to dust

Your eyes still smoldering in the cold black air

Every step a hit that nobody can bear

Pre-Chorus – male vocal

Can you hear the motor breathing in our veins?

Rust on rust, we move with every refrain

Chorus – female & male vocals

Carnival in chrome, carnival in chrome

Bones don't break but the metal does, oh

Every step a hit and every beat a home

Chrome on skin, the engine's heart is mine to own

Bridge – female vocal only

Hold your breath against the sparks that rain

Hold your hand against my burning frame

We'll never stop this even when it ends

Cause the motor breathing in our veins will never bend

Chorus – female & male vocals

Carnival in chrome, carnival in chrome

Bones don't break but the metal does, oh

Every step a hit and every beat a home

Chrome on skin, the engine's heart is mine to own
