Cold Iron Wires

[Verse] Grey smoke rises like a tired sigh The factory whispers Machines won't lie A red star flickers Caught in the haze History loops We're lost in its maze [Chorus] Cold iron wires Tangled in my chest Buzzing with secrets Never let me rest Cold iron wires Pulling me tight Strung between shadows Under dim light [Verse 2] Concrete forests with silent roots Bootsteps echo Marching truths The air tastes bitter Metallic and dry A bird made of steel can't ever fly [Chorus] Cold iron wires Tangled in my chest Buzzing with secrets Never let me rest Cold iron wires Pulling me tight Strung between shadows Under dim light [Bridge] The clock ticks backward Or maybe it stalls Time feels like whispers in crumbling walls Is it freedom I hear Or just the hum? The wires sing softly But my lips stay numb [Chorus] Cold iron wires Tangled in my chest Buzzing with secrets Never let me rest Cold iron wires Pulling me tight Strung between shadows Under dim light
