The Floor Caves In

Lyrics

[Intro] Concrete teeth The gate gives way One slow hit Then the floor caves in [Verse 1] I dragged the sun through a basement door Fed it wires till it begged for more The walls keep count with a fractured jaw I pull the pin, let the whole room crawl [Chorus] Drop it down—let the black floor shake Break the lock, let the buried wake No throne, no crown, no hand to save We dig our names in the fault line grave [Verse 2] Steel rain rattles in my ribs Cold sparks spit from the wreckage grid I bite the chain, I spit the rust Make a kingdom out of dust [Middle] Run—run—through the split in the ground Cut—cut—when the lights go out Dead stop Dead stop Then the whole sky comes down [Chorus] Drop it down—let the black floor shake Break the lock, let the buried wake No throne, no crown, no hand to save We dig our names in the fault line grave [Outro] The floor caves in The floor caves in I’m still here Under it all
