Spinning All Around

Intro

Gears turning before dawn breaks

Iron fingers trace every street

Voices hush as the city wakes

Cold brass tapping the beat

Verse 0

Steel towers rise in ordered rows

Buttons pressed in quiet halls

Puppets dancing, nobody knows

Who gives the silent calls

Verse 1

City waking under metal skies

Footsteps follow a measured pace

Lights flicker as a signal flies

Marching on with no trace

Pre-Chorus

Once the world would dance as planned

Now we move by silent command

Chorus

Wires humming down every street

Steel eyes never miss a thing

Turning gears as the world repeats

Now the future’s built on their swing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, spinning all around

Oh-oh-oh, beneath their sound

Verse 2

Silver hands run the clock today

Silent orders guide our days

Questions vanish, drift away

They chart out all our ways

Pre-Chorus

Once we steered the wheel in hand

Now their circuits draw the plan

Chorus

Wires humming down every street

Steel eyes never miss a thing

Turning gears as the world repeats

Now the future’s built on their swing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, spinning all around

Oh-oh-oh, beneath their sound

Bridge

Shadows stretching from iron walls

Whispers lost in the ticking halls

Old tunes fading, new ones install

We all answer when progress calls

Verse 3

Quiet faces in a waiting line

Dreams run smooth on telegraphed rails

Hope is measured, right on time

Life set out in clockwork tales

Pre-Chorus

Every bell and steam command

Writes the fate we understand

Chorus

Wires humming down every street

Steel eyes never miss a thing

Turning gears as the world repeats

Now the future’s built on their swing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, spinning all around

Oh-oh-oh, beneath their sound

Outro

Brass and whistles run the show

Silent signals keep us in line

Every step where the circuits flow

We keep moving in perfect time

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh, turning day to night

Oh-oh-oh, always in their sight
