Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I remember their laughter
Mud on my tracks
Rain on my skin
Cards on the ammo crates
Coffee in a chipped tin
They painted names on my armor
Crude white letters
Inside jokes
Gloves tucked over the periscope
Smoke and diesel
Oil and hope
[Chorus]
Who will drive me home now
Their bodies cooling in my bones
I am hollow steel and sorrow
Dragging ghosts through broken stone
I was built to bear the impact
Not to feel their last soft breath
Gods of iron
Hear me calling
I am a coffin that regrets
[Verse 2]
The sun flashed once through the viewport
Then a hammer of white-hot glass
Their shout cut off mid-swear
Time shattered
Folded
Cracked
Shrapnel wrote red flowers
Inside my ribs
On every wall
I felt their hearts go quiet
Felt them slide
Then finally fall
[Chorus]
Who will drive me home now
Their bodies cooling in my bones
I am hollow steel and sorrow
Dragging ghosts through broken stone
I was built to bear the impact
Not to feel their last soft breath
Gods of iron
Hear me calling
I am a coffin that regrets
[Bridge]
I still hear the captain counting
(check your lines… check your lines…)
Gunner humming out of habit
Under flickering battle signs
Loader’s charm still swings and circles
From a nail above his seat
I rock gently on my treads
Cradling what I could not keep
[Chorus]
Who will drive me home now
Their names etched into my frame
Every rivet
Every weld
Burns and whispers each lost name
I was built to break the silence
But I only cradle death
Gods of iron
If you’re listening
Let them go
And take
My breath
