Lyrics

There’s a fire in the canyon where the black wires hum
And the preacher’s bones are singing through the barrel of a gun
I was born where the dust don’t settle
Where the sky hangs low like iron and metal
Mama prayed but the ground stayed cursed
Every blessing came out reversed
There’s a rail line cut through the valley of thieves
Where the ghosts still swing in the dying trees
And the engine howls like it knows my name
Every mile just feeds the flame
I tried to run but the road runs back
Every step leaves a deeper crack
I’ve been fed by sin, baptized in rust
Drank from the well of broken trust
Hear that choir in the wires scream
No redemption in this machine
I’m the last damn echo of a hanging man
Still swinging slow in a blood-red land
If there’s mercy here, it don’t come free
It’s buried deep where they buried me
There’s a factory hymn in the midnight air
Steel teeth grinding out a prayer
Every bolt and spark and scream
Builds a god from a dying dream
I carved my name in the canyon wall
But the dirt don’t remember none at all
And the sheriff’s badge is a hollow lie
Just another mouth that’s learning to lie
I hear them call through the static haze
Dead men walking in electric graves
I’ve been fed by sin, baptized in rust
Dragged through fire, choked on dust
Hear that choir in the wires scream
No salvation in this machine
I’m the last damn echo of a hanging man
Still swinging slow in a blood-red land
If there’s mercy here, it don’t come free
It’s buried deep where they buried me
They built their kingdom out of bones and oil
Turned every prayer into grinding toil
You can dig real deep but you won’t find peace
Just another chain that’ll never release
The ground shakes loose
The sky caves in
The past ain’t dead
It’s under your skin
I’ve been fed by sin, baptized in rust
Nothing left but iron and dust
Hear that choir in the wires scream
We are ghosts inside the machine
I’m the last damn echo of a hanging man
Cut me down if you think you can
Ain’t no mercy carved in me
Just the truth of what I came to be
There’s a fire in the canyon… still burning low
And the dead don’t leave… they just don’t show
