[Verse 1]
Rain falls hard on the iron road
Boots slide slow through the broken cold
Ghosts in the wires, nowhere to go
I hear them hum when the red lights glow
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on tight
Don’t look back
The ground shakes loose
Then fades to black
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes
[Verse 2]
Neon vultures circle the sky
They claw at the moon like they want my time
I lost my name in the factory smoke
Still I breathe in and I don’t choke
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on tight
Don’t look back
The ground shakes loose
Then fades to black
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes
[Bridge]
If the bridge breaks down
I’ll walk the rails
If the night gets loud
I’ll chase the tail
Of that far-off dawn
Cutting through
What was left behind
I’m coming through
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes
Rain falls hard on the iron road
Boots slide slow through the broken cold
Ghosts in the wires, nowhere to go
I hear them hum when the red lights glow
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on tight
Don’t look back
The ground shakes loose
Then fades to black
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes
[Verse 2]
Neon vultures circle the sky
They claw at the moon like they want my time
I lost my name in the factory smoke
Still I breathe in and I don’t choke
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on tight
Don’t look back
The ground shakes loose
Then fades to black
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes
[Bridge]
If the bridge breaks down
I’ll walk the rails
If the night gets loud
I’ll chase the tail
Of that far-off dawn
Cutting through
What was left behind
I’m coming through
[Chorus]
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
I keep moving while the old world dies
Keep moving on
Keep moving on
Burning through the ash in my eyes

Alternative rock with dark electronic pulse, mid-tempo swung drums, gritty bass, and pounding toms; verse rides sparse guitar and low synth drone, pre-chorus opens with rising snare and filtered pads, chorus hits with stacked gang vocals and a serrated lead line. Clean close-mic verses, doubled hook vocals, delay throws on key words, reversed swells into each chorus, metallic hits and wind-noise textures, wide and punchy mix with a cold industrial sheen., world
