Skin and Steel lyrics

Verse

Copper wire against your collarbone

Sunlight catching where the shadow's gone

You move through a crowd like it wasn't there

I watch your feet until they start to share

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why I feel it in my chest

This isn't just music, this is our best

Every step you take makes time slow down

Nothing else matters, only the sound

Chorus

Oh we move like metal and we glow

Skin against steel where the rhythm goes

We dance until sunrise climbs the wall

Moving together, one heart after all

Iron wire and your pulse so bright

We burn like fire through a thousand nights

This is how it feels to lose control

Metal heartbeat on the open road

Verse 2

Your hand brushes mine when the drum hits hard

Sweat on copper where our palms start

You pull me close until we're almost one

Bass line humming deep beneath the sun

Your breath against my collarbone now

Every step we take is breaking through

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why I feel it in my chest

This isn't just music, this is our best

Every step you take makes time slow down

Nothing else matters, only the sound

Chorus

Oh we move like metal and we glow

Skin against steel where the rhythm goes

We dance until sunrise climbs the wall

Moving together, one heart after all

Iron wire and your pulse so bright

We burn like fire through a thousand nights

This is how it feels to lose control

Metal heartbeat on the open road

Bridge

Let the music tear us wide awake

One heartbeat on the city's dark face

No more walls between where you are now

Only skin and steel and the drum in the crowd

We don't need a name or a time or place

This is how we move through space

Chorus

Oh we move like metal and we glow

Skin against steel where the rhythm goes

We dance until sunrise climbs the wall

Moving together, one heart after all

Iron wire and your pulse so bright

We burn like fire through a thousand nights

This is how it feels to lose control

Metal heartbeat on the open road
