Perforated Core (Version 2) lyrics
Verse 1
Iron door swings wide
Steam off the skin
Alley full of glass
Morning bleeding in
Five AM cold
Gravel under boots
Chest wide open
Ripping out the roots
Pre-Chorus
White sky breaks
Shadows thin
No bass left
Breathe it in
Chorus
Perforated core
Daylight through the grid
Standing on the curb
Look at what we did
Perforated core
Rumbling in the bone
Sun hits the metal
Walk it off alone
Verse 2
Pavement turning pale
Sodium lamps die
Amber cut of dawn
Level with the eye
Filters on the asphalt
Jacket locked tight
Engines on the bypass
Wiping out the night
Pre-Chorus
White sky breaks
Shadows thin
No bass left
Breathe it in
Chorus
Perforated core
Daylight through the grid
Standing on the curb
Look at what we did
Perforated core
Rumbling in the bone
Sun hits the metal
Walk it off alone
Bridge
No roof above
No dark inside
Every chamber open
Nowhere left to hide
Exhale the room
Inhale the frost
Reset the machine
Total up the cost
Chorus
Perforated core
Daylight through the grid
Standing on the curb
Look at what we did
Perforated core
Rumbling in the bone
Sun hits the metal
Walk it off alone
