Dead Weight

Lyrics

[Intro] Bite down— The floor gives way. Steel in the teeth, No room to pray. [Verse 1] I drag the night by its broken chain, Kick the locks till the bolts spit rain. Low gears grind where the streetlights quit, One black spark and the whole world splits. [Pre-Chorus] Hold— Cut the wire. Hold— Feed the fire. [Chorus] Bring it down, bring it down, Let the dead weight hit the ground. Crack the seam, shake the frame, Leave the dark without a name. Bring it down, bring it down— I don’t bend, I don’t drown. [Verse 2] No clean hands and no safe retreat, Just a redline pulse under both my feet. Every hard stop bites a little bit deeper, Every next hit wakes the sleeper. [Middle] Faster—through the teeth of the gate, Tremor in the walls, no time to wait. Stop. Start. Cut the breath in two. The whole damn floor comes loose beneath you. [Chorus] Bring it down, bring it down, Let the dead weight hit the ground. Crack the seam, shake the frame, Leave the dark without a name. Bring it down, bring it down— I don’t bend, I don’t drown. [Outro] One last turn of the iron screw, One last wall coming down on you. No way out. No way through. The ground breaks open— And I break through.
