No Way Out

Lyrics

Intro
Tick... tick...
Skin on steel
Lock the door
Bite the seal

Verse 1
I woke in the gears
With iron in my teeth
A mirror full of static
Staring back at me
Hands on the rail
I can’t feel my name
The walls keep breathing
Like they know my shame

Pre-Chorus
One more step
Then the floor gives way
One more breath
And it eats my face
Say it low
Say it mean
There’s a voice in the dark
Wearing me

Chorus
No way out
No way out
Hear that sound
No way out
(No way out)
No way out
Down we go
No way out

Verse 2
Black code crawling
Under my skin
Every little thought
Gets folded in
I tried to run
Through the blinking red
But the hallway bent
And it laughed instead
Cold hands counting
Every mistake
Every prayer I made
Every lie I break

Pre-Chorus
One more step
Then the floor gives way
One more breath
And it eats my face
Say it low
Say it mean
There’s a voice in the dark
Wearing me

Chorus
No way out
No way out
Hear that sound
No way out
(No way out)
No way out
Down we go
No way out

Breakdown
Kneel
Bend
Break
Bite the chain
Kneel
Bend
Break
Say my name
I am the key
I am the lock
I am the mouth
That will not stop

Verse 3
Now the lights are skinless
Hanging in the air
I can see my ending
Written everywhere
If I close my eyes
It gets closer still
If I open them wide
It learns my will
So take my pulse
Take my breath
I was born in the crack
Between life and death

Chorus
No way out
No way out
Hear that sound
No way out
(No way out)
No way out
Down we go
No way out

Outro
Tick... tick...
Skin on steel
Lock the door
Bite the seal
No way out
No way out
