Metal With Me
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
Intro
Cold hands on the gate
Clockwork in my chest
One step in
And it starts to wake
Verse 1
I taste the oil in the air
Your shadow scratches the wall
Every lock in the hallway
Starts to call, starts to call
My name in the cables
A crack in the glass
I came here empty
Now I hear it at last
Pre-Chorus
Sink down
Let the teeth align
Pull me under
Bolt by bolt, line by line
Skin to steel
Let the signal hit
I don’t run
I let it sit
Chorus
Metal with me
Metal with me
Bite down hard
And come with me
Metal with me
Metal with me
Break your shape
To set me free
Breakdown
Go
Go
Hands on the frame
Grip that pain
Go
Go
Hear it descend
Again, again
Verse 2
The floor keeps shaking below
Like a beast in a pipe
I see bright teeth in the dark
They don’t blink, they just bite
You left your heartbeat behind
On a rusted chain
Now every step in this place
Sings your name, sings your name
Pre-Chorus
Sink down
Let the teeth align
Pull me under
Bolt by bolt, line by line
Skin to steel
Let the signal hit
I don’t run
I let it sit
Chorus
Metal with me
Metal with me
Bite down hard
And come with me
Metal with me
Metal with me
Break your shape
To set me free
Bridge
(You are becoming)
A mouth of sparks
(You are becoming)
A body of parts
No pulse
No plea
Just the hum
In the machine
Breakdown
Smash
Crush
Lock and grind
Leave the light behind
Smash
Crush
Hold that scream
Inside, inside
Verse 3
Now I move like a warning
Through the dust and steam
Half alive, half weapon
Half of a bad dream
Your face in the panel
Your voice in the wire
I fed the fire
Now it feeds the fire
Pre-Chorus
Sink down
Let the teeth align
Pull me under
Bolt by bolt, line by line
Skin to steel
Let the signal hit
I don’t run
I let it sit
Chorus
Metal with me
Metal with me
Bite down hard
And come with me
Metal with me
Metal with me
Break your shape
To set me free
Outro
Cold hands on the gate
Clockwork in my chest
One step in
And it never rests
Metal with me
(come with me)
Metal with me
(come with me)
