Iron Crown on Empty Ground 4

Verse

Welded steel against my palm

Static crawling where the iron calm

Concrete floor keeps time with pain

I am built for nothing but this chain

Chain links count as many hours spent

Skin gone numb beneath the crown

No name left inside the weight

Only rhythm underneath the ground

Pre-Chorus

Crown won't move without the hands

Hands don't stop until it stands

Iron keeps what I surrendered

Every link is how the current burned

Chorus

I wear the crown on empty ground

Iron holds me till the walls come down

No name left inside the weight

Just the rhythm underneath the plate

Verse 2

Sweat runs cold behind my eyes

Kick drum matching how I rise

Spikes press in where skin was bare

Chain won't let me walk away there

Floor still shaking, ceiling gone

Smoke machine breathes where light once shone

Hands stay locked to steel and floor

Counting only what I've lost before

Pre-Chorus

Crown won't move without the hands

Hands don't stop until it stands

Iron keeps what I surrendered

Every link is how the current burned

Chorus

I wear the crown on empty ground

Iron holds me till the walls come down

No name left inside the weight

Just the rhythm underneath the plate

Bridge

Rust will follow where the blood has gone

Crown still shines before the dawn

Tide came in and took the shore

I remain standing through the door

Outro

Welded steel against my palm

Concrete floor keeps time with pain
