Ashes On Steel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I keep my hands on the gate Cold steel under my thumb The room is all sharp corners And I bite down on the numb Your name hangs in the air Like a nail in my mouth I try to move forward But the floor keeps pulling south [Pre-Chorus] Then the walls start breathing And the dark starts to lean I hear the whole thing rising From the crack in between I was built for the break For the hit, for the fall If I make it through this I'll make it through at all [Chorus] Burn it down, burn it down Ashes on steel Burn it down, burn it down Make me feel real I was born in the pressure I was made to break Burn it down, burn it down Till the whole place shakes [Verse 2] I wear the bruises like armor Hidden under my skin Every scar is a door That I still won't let in You say heal, but I hear The old wire snap I keep dragging the weight Like a chain on my back [Pre-Chorus] Then the walls start breathing And the dark starts to lean I hear the whole thing rising From the crack in between I was built for the break For the hit, for the fall If I make it through this I'll make it through at all [Chorus] Burn it down, burn it down Ashes on steel Burn it down, burn it down Make me feel real I was born in the pressure I was made to break Burn it down, burn it down Till the whole place shakes [Bridge] If I go under Let the echoes stay If I lose my footing I still won't turn away I can hear it coming Like thunder in my chest I don't want peace tonight I want one honest test [Final Chorus] Burn it down, burn it down Ashes on steel Burn it down, burn it down Make me feel real I was born in the pressure I was made to break Burn it down, burn it down Till the whole place shakes Burn it down, burn it down Ashes on steel Burn it down, burn it down Make me feel real
