Sump Line Requiem (Version 2)

Verse

Water low in the sump line pipe

Diesel hum keeps the count of the night

Boots on grate where the current runs

Counting down till the shift is done

Pre-Chorus

Steam off the drum, breath in the wire

Floor drops out, feet catch fire

Nine more hours, then the sky breaks through

Bones keep moving, I don't stop, I push

Chorus

Move till the lights come up

Move till the lights come up

Grind in the dark, gold in the dust

Move till the lights come up

Verse

Tunnel walls sweat copper and rust

Every echo turns to us

Shift bell buried in the drone

Nobody counting, we're not alone

Pre-Chorus

Steam off the drum, breath in the wire

Floor drops out, feet catch fire

Nine more hours, then the sky breaks through

Bones keep moving, I don't stop, I push

Chorus

Move till the lights come up

Move till the lights come up

Grind in the dark, gold in the dust

Move till the lights come up

Bridge

No sun down here

Just the pulse, just the beam

Hands on the rail

Riding out the seam

Chorus

Move till the lights come up

Move till the lights come up

Grind in the dark, gold in the dust

Move till the lights come up
