Track Insight / Lyrics
I stepped off the rusted bus line
The gray sky is starting to shine
I walk through the tall yellow grass
And watch all the heavy clouds pass
Steel in the mud, cold and alone
A heavy crown, a broken throne
Thunder rolls low, shaking the ground
The only ghost that can be found
I focus the lens on the rim
The light in the valley is dim
A helmet is sunk in the clay
Where soldiers once fought for the day
The boots in the dirt left a trail
The colors are ghostly and pale
I snap a quick picture of gold
A story that needs to be told
Steel in the mud, cold and alone
A heavy crown, a broken throne
Thunder rolls low, shaking the ground
The only ghost that can be found
The boom of the guns is a beat
I feel it beneath my own feet
The air tastes of sulfur and lime
A frozen and terrible time
I pack up my gear in the rain
The valley is humming with pain
I leave the old metal behind
A vision that stays in my mind
Steel in the mud, cold and alone
A heavy crown, a broken throne
Thunder rolls low, shaking the ground
The only ghost that can be found
Hold the frame, click the light.
Steel in the mud.
Just one shot.
