Lyrics

Intro

Oh

Mmm

Verse 1

Pistons pump the red oil through the block

I see the timing belt spinning true

Seven blades slice the cold morning air

The spirit moves through the gear

Pre-Chorus

Burn the gas

Release the heat

Fix the seal

Chorus

Pressure climbs inside the metal hull

Power flowing out to every limb

The spark began before the world was built

Everything relies on Him

He is the spark

He is the spark

The fuel that never burns away

Verse 2

Compressors scream as air turns into force

Rocket nozzles point toward the black

Bearings keep the giant turbine steady

A heavy cross for the steel to hold

Pre-Chorus

Check the valve

Bleed the lines

Rest the work

Chorus

Pressure climbs inside the metal hull

Power flowing out to every limb

The spark began before the world was built

Everything relies on Him

He is the spark

He is the spark

The fuel that never burns away

Bridge

Compression stroke

Expansion stroke

Exhaust stroke

I fix the leaks in the prayer closet

Wash the grit from the greasy chrome

Keep the heavy motor running

Until I find the way back home

Chorus

Pressure climbs inside the metal hull

Power flowing out to every limb

The spark began before the world was built

Everything relies on Him

He is the spark

He is the spark

The fuel that never burns away

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

Thrust reversers deploy on wet tarmac

A gentle hand slows the massive frame

The governor regulates the flow

Guitar Solo

Outro

Fade Out

Instrumental
