You watch the mist climb up the steel
Boots planted heavy on the rail
A trench coat flapping at your heels
The counter clicks a steady tale
Oh Geiger Bridge don't let him go
The zone is cold but he stays warm
He reads the wind he reads the snow
A quiet king of radiation storm
My lens catches your silhouette
The needle jumps a nervous climb
A ghost in coat and cigarette
Just killing seconds killing time
Oh Geiger Bridge don't let him go
The zone is cold but he stays warm
He reads the wind he reads the snow
A quiet king of radiation storm
The concrete cracks the rebar bleeds
You count the clicks between your breaths
No badge no gun just stubborn seeds
You plant your flag in radioactive depths
Oh Geiger Bridge don't let him go
The zone is cold but he stays warm
He reads the wind he reads the snow
A quiet king of radiation storm
I load the film I frame the shot
You turn your head the mist rolls low
The only light this bridge has got
Is you and that Geiger glow
Oh Geiger Bridge don't let him go
The zone is cold but he stays warm
He reads the wind he reads the snow
A quiet king of radiation storm
You're the keeper of the Geiger Bridge
Click click click the counter sings
You're the king of broken things
