Track Insight / Lyrics
You rest the blade on corroded rail
The metal sings a low detail
Sweat drips down your armored cheek
The city hums a tired shriek
Night falls on the brick and stone
You breathe the weight you've always known
Each rung a prayer you used to sing
The choir fades but voices cling
Iron fire escape, you climb alone
The knight's old armor feels like home
Summer dusk burns gold on rusted steel
You search for peace that isn't real
Your gauntlets scrape the flaking paint
The memory of a battle faint
The hymn you sang now cracked and dry
Beneath the vast and violet sky
Night falls on the brick and stone
You breathe the weight you've always known
Each rung a prayer you used to sing
The choir fades but voices cling
Iron fire escape, you climb alone
The knight's old armor feels like home
Summer dusk burns gold on rusted steel
You search for peace that isn't real
The landing creaks beneath your weight
A moment suspended, simply fate
You scan the windows, lives inside
No place to run, no place to hide
The choir voice returns in breath
You laugh at life, you laugh at death
The sword stays sheathed, the fight is done
You watch the setting of the sun
Iron fire escape, you climb alone
The knight's old armor feels like home
Summer dusk burns gold on rusted steel
You search for peace that isn't real
Stars prick the purple overhead
You lay the blade upon the bed
Of iron grates and cooling air
No kingdom left, no crown to wear
Iron fire escape, you climb alone
The knight's old armor feels like home
Summer dusk burns gold on rusted steel
You search for peace that isn't real
You rest the sword, the night is still
The iron holds you, always will
