Steel Crown Rising 4

Verse

Iron dust settles on my collarbone

The machine breathes slow beneath the stone

Wires hum where the night began

Every heartbeat counted by the pan

Hands grip the rail till the rust turns white

I hold it shut against the light

Pre-Chorus

Something's stirring under the floor

A weight I keep that nobody knows anymore

Let it climb before it breaks me slow

Give it one more push before we go

Chorus

Steel crown rising, holding on tight

Nothing falls when the iron bites

Blood and voltage, black against white

I am the king of this last light

Verse

Rivets glowing like embers in my chest

The city trembles under every breath I take

Concrete walls can't keep what's growing here

Sweat turns silver on a face so near

Every hand that finds mine is not to save

We're the ones who built this, we don't crave

Pre-Chorus

Something's stirring under the floor

A weight I keep that nobody knows anymore

Let it climb before it breaks me slow

Give it one more push before we go

Chorus

Steel crown rising, holding on tight

Nothing falls when the iron bites

Blood and voltage, black against white

I am the king of this last light

Bridge

Let go

No crown

Just rust

Just floor

Just breath

No weight

Just burn

Just one

More

Chorus

Steel crown rising, holding on tight

Nothing falls when the iron bites

Blood and voltage, black against white

I am the king of this last light
