[Intro]
Cold iron turns beneath the floor
A buried engine asks for more
[Verse 1]
Teeth of the furnace, grinding slow
Black rain gathers where the dead winds blow
I wear the weight of a thousand years
A crown of rust, a mouth of fear
[Pre-Chorus]
No mercy in the turning wheel
No name survives what hands conceal
[Chorus]
Break the gate
Bury the sun
Raise the pressure
Till the final breath is gone
Break the gate
Let the deep earth speak
Every throne becomes a grave
Every stronghold turns weak
[Verse 2]
Under the chapel, roots entwine
Old bones knock in a crooked line
The bell is cracked, the altar split
Still the black procession moves through it
[Breakdown]
Slow
Lower
Crush the stone
Drag the mountain
Take the throne
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
In the hollow, something wakes
A pulse beneath the plates
No heaven opens, no angels descend
Only the pressure, without end
[Final Chorus]
Break the gate
Bury the sun
Raise the pressure
Till the final breath is gone
Break the gate
Let the deep earth speak
Every throne becomes a grave
Every stronghold turns weak
[Outro]
Cold iron turns beneath the floor
The buried engine asks no more
