[Verse 1] I wake in the cold pit Hands black with the oil Chain by chain, I feed it Turn the same slow coil My shirt tastes like iron My jaw locks tight in pain Every bolt I tighten Locks me back again [Pre-Chorus] I count the sparks above me Like prayers in a wire cage If there is a door in this Show me the edge of day [Chorus] Light bringer, come for me Break this wheel, let me breathe Light bringer, come for me Cut the chain, set me free Light bringer, hear my name Out in the smoke and steam Light bringer, come for me Pull me from the machine [Verse 2] No sun in this shelter Only pipes and a glare Men move like broken pistons With dust in their hair The floor shakes under hunger The walls sweat rust and heat I learned to speak in hammers And rest in a beat [Pre-Chorus] I see your face in flashes Through the soot and the glow If mercy still has power Then let this prisoner know [Chorus] Light bringer, come for me Break this wheel, let me breathe Light bringer, come for me Cut the chain, set me free Light bringer, hear my name Out in the smoke and steam Light bringer, come for me Pull me from the machine [Bridge] If you are real Meet me in the dark Bring one clean hand Bring one living spark I have been working Until I disappeared If you reach through the iron I will follow you out of here [Final Chorus] Light bringer, come for me Break this wheel, let me breathe Light bringer, come for me Cut the chain, set me free Light bringer, hear my name Out in the smoke and steam Light bringer, come for me Pull me from the machine
