Lyric

Concrete forest, heavy with the vapor

Rusty gears grinding out this paper

Breathing in the air, the color of lead

Kindness is a madness, better off dead

Turn the valve, let the pressure rise high

Beyond the limit, where the sparks start to fly

Metal on metal, a screaming kind of beat

Shot to your heart, direct from the heat

Rising Steam, cover up the world in white

Cold Iron, feel the weight of it tonight

No escape from the smoke screen glare

Poison in the mind, floating through the air

Rule this opaque world, don’t look back again

Fade into the steam, where the shadows remain

Stadium shaking with an anonymous craze

Who’s the hero? Lost in the haze

Throw the lectures deep into the fog

Chain the shadows, like a gear in the clog

Precision system, logic with no grace

Dark magic bullets, raining on the place

Aiming through the sight, heart rate slow and low

Checkmate, baby—watch the smoke story grow

Scent of betrayal in the rain-soaked street

Trusting no one is my pride, my own retreat

High-heat breath from a muzzle’s flare

Unsolved puzzles, pieces in the air

Ripping through the silence, a sudden burst of sound

A dying scream that never hits the ground

"The beginning of the end," the gauge is off the chart

Watch the whole world fall, tearing it apart

Is it hot? Or is it cold?

Only seconds left until the senses lose their hold

Three, two, one

Raging Steam, take away the sight tonight

Rusty Iron, shoot the soul into the light

Beyond the smoke where the clouds start to fold

Reaching for an altitude no one can hold

Rule this opaque world, don’t look back again

Fade into the steam, where the shadows remain
