"Iron City" lyrics

"Iron City"

Alone in Central Park when
Nothing seems to happen
All my thoughts invaded
Memories degraded

We slept too deep
Now uncertainty fades to progress
The slow machine
Paved with traffic
Seems pleased to take us out

I can feel your love, iron city
I can build you up, feel for me

Statements I'm glad they don't mean no
Gave our son to the 1 and 0
Then there came a dark thing
Tryna shed this shark skin

We slept too deep
And the dream repeats
But it's fading now

I can feel your love, iron city
I have built you up, feel for me
I was here before you can't see me anymore
I have lived a life and I left you there, inside

Think I made some mayhem tonight

Going out in vain for someone I'd remain for

I can feel your love, iron city
I can build you up, feel for me
I was here before you can't use me anymore
I have saved your life and I left you there, inspired

Who left a crumbling heart
Who left a crumbling heart
Who let me take it too far
You left a crumbling star

Who left a crumbling heart
Who left a crumbling heart
Who let the crumbling start
Who let me take it too far
