Sunset in Steel

[Intro] Golden hour bleeds through rust and dust, a hush in the air [Verse 1] In the cradle of an old factory, shadows learn his face Black flowers bloom on the shirt, a knot of quiet grace Dhulled light on a steel chair, the world in waiting stance Red glass over eyes, he counts time with a breath that lasts [Pre-Chorus] What you see is surface calm, beneath the surface fire Breath like a whisper so sharp, a silent, steady wire [Chorus] Hold your breath, the night could bend Eyes behind the red-tinted glass, intentions blend Steel and silk in a quiet stance, the moment bends When the sun sinks low, he measures where it ends [Verse 2] Dust pirouettes in gold, a halo of ash and gold The handgun gleams a silver note, a story left untold He studies the reflection, a duel between poise and doubt The factory sings in metal tones, distant bells cry out [Pre-Chorus] What you see is surface calm, beneath the surface fire Breath like a whisper so sharp, a silent, steady wire [Chorus] Hold your breath, the night could bend Eyes behind the red-tinted glass, intentions blend Steel and silk in a quiet stance, the moment bends When the sun sinks low, he measures where it ends [Bridge] Sand and smoke in the fading light, the clock goes slack A vow kept in the fade of beige and rusted black [Chorus] Hold your breath, the night could bend Eyes behind the red-tinted glass, intentions blend Steel and silk in a quiet stance, the moment bends When the sun sinks low, he measures where it ends [Outro] Sunset seals the chamber, silence finds its space One last glance, one steady pause, and nothing leaves the place
