Cold Water Throne (Version 2)

Verse

Ice water running down the rail

Sweat gone cold against my spine

Bass drops hard and I lose time

Your hand still locked to mine

The room goes black behind your eyes

Steel floor holds us underneath

No escape from the iron tide

We don't speak, we just descend

Colder now than when it began

Just you and me inside this ring

Nothing left but blood and wind

Pre-Chorus

Pull me under where the light won't find us

Till there's only heat behind us

No way back through the door

Only forward down to more

Chorus

Into the ice, into the dark

Your palm against my chest tonight

Iron crown beneath the spark

Cold water throne, we don't break

Beneath the current of sound

I found you lost on solid ground

Bodies numb, but yours stays tight

Down here where the light gives way

Verse

Salt and steel across your throat

Four a.m. and counting both

Your shoulder presses against my knee

The whole room fading out at sea

No name left in either eye

Just your pulse against my spine

Floor is shaking but I don't mind

Every drop that leaves our skin

Fills the dark where the speakers spin

Pre-Chorus

Pull me under where the light won't find us

Till there's only heat behind us

No way back through the door

Only forward down to more

Chorus

Into the ice, into the dark

Your palm against my chest tonight

Iron crown beneath the spark

Cold water throne, we don't break

Beneath the current of sound

I found you lost on solid ground

Bodies numb, but yours stays tight

Down here where the light gives way

Bridge

Not your name, just your hand in mine

Nothing left to save or lose

Just this current that won't unwind

Take me deeper than I knew

Pre-Chorus

Pull me under where the light won't find us

Till there's only heat behind us

No way back through the door

Only forward down to more

Chorus

Into the ice, into the dark

Your palm against my chest tonight

Iron crown beneath the spark

Cold water throne, we don't break

Beneath the current of sound

I found you lost on solid ground

Bodies numb, but yours stays tight

Down here where the light gives way
