Thaw the Iron Sky

[Verse 1] Cold ground Cracked boots in the mud Rust clouds Still stained with the flood I’ve been Sleeping with the frost on my lungs Waiting for a drumbeat From the sun [Chorus] Springtime in a world of steel Flowers pushing through the battlefield Green veins In the armor and the shield Let the dead snow melt and run I raise my fists against the gun Springtime And the war in me comes undone [Verse 2] Gray sky Like a helmet on fire Old scars Bloom red then retire Soft rain Hammers on the burned-out cars Tiny sparks of color Cut the dark [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Hear the crows go quiet When the first buds rise Ash on my jacket Pollen in my eyes I taste new air On these broken teeth Life grows loud Under shattered concrete [guitar solo] [Chorus]
