Lyrics
[Verse]
The cobalt sun is sinking low
Above the drifts of frozen waste
Where every hand is out to take
And mercy has a bitter taste
The scrap-heaps groan under the ice
The scavengers begin to prowl
They’d sell their kin for half a credit
Beneath a synthetic winter's howl
[Chorus]
We’re the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
Taking what’s ours
In the grit and the dust
Yeah, the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
None of us left
That a person could trust
[Verse]
A thief is king in Sector Nine
With chrome-leaf etched upon his skin
He drinks the fuel to keep him warm
And wears his scars just like a win
No stars are visible tonight
Through smog that freezes in the air
They'll strip the suit right off your back
And leave you standing naked there
[Chorus]
We’re the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
Taking what’s ours
In the grit and the dust
Yeah, the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
None of us left
That a person could trust
[Bridge]
There ain't no heaven for the cruel
No rescue ship across the black
We traded hope for heavy steel
And there’s no way of turning back
The engine hums a jagged tune
The permafrost is digging deep
We made our bed on razor wire
And that’s the way we’re gonna sleep
[Chorus]
We’re the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
Taking what’s ours
In the grit and the dust
Yeah, the kings of the cold
Gods of the rust
None of us left
That a person could trust
[Outro]
