The Brake Won't Reset

[Ներածություն] [One bar: lone tremolo-picked high guitar, feedback wash] [Bar two: palm-muted low chug, pinched squeal] [Bar three: bass and drums enter, heavy half-time stomp] [Bar four: full riff] [Տուն 1] You called, “clamp’s walking!”—the cable kicked hard My boots slid sideways above the lanes I caught the safety line with both hands While a thousand tires kept drawing their names [Կրկներգ] Pull the winch by hand, don’t let me fall I’m hauling along this wire, inch by inch The road keeps rolling underneath us all Hold fast, hold fast—i’m not letting go [Տուն 2] You braced your shoulder, turned the crank slow Wind shoved the platform out from the span I fed the line through my burned-tight gloves You kept the drum moving, hand over hand [Կրկներգ] Pull the winch by hand, don’t let me fall I’m hauling along this wire, inch by inch The road keeps rolling underneath us all Hold fast, hold fast—i’m not letting go [Guitar solo] [Instrumental: soaring lead over crushing half-time chug] [Կրկներգ] Pull the winch by hand, don’t let me fall I’m hauling along this wire, inch by inch The road keeps rolling underneath us all Hold fast, hold fast—we’re not letting go [Ելք] One hand on the line, one hand reaching for you The clamp bites down; the platform comes through Traffic keeps moving. we climb back in.
