[Verse 1]
Sirens flash through childhood dreams
Metal teeth and broken seams
Daddy's hand inside the beast
That factory won't let him breathe
My heart beats like pistons now
Watching life turn inside out
[Pre-Chorus]
Emergency lights keep spinning round
As memories hit the concrete ground
3 AM and I'm still here
Dancing 'til they disappear
[Chorus]
Crash, bang, system overload
Watch it break, watch it fold
Dance through the pain tonight
'Til the morning makes it right
Machinery in my blood
Can't stop this toxic flood
Break me down, build me up
Like father, like daughter's luck
[Verse 2]
White walls and morphine drips
Counting scars like shooting stars
His calloused hands now shake with fear
But mine keep moving through the years
Found salvation on this floor
Where bass beats heal what came before
[Bridge]
Sometimes I see it happening
That moment frozen in my head
The grinding gears, the screaming steel
Time stops but my body still feels
Every single breaking point
Every nerve set comes undone
But in this dark electric night
I'll dance until I'm numb
[Chorus]
Crash, bang, system overload
Watch it break, watch it fold
Dance through the pain tonight
'Til the morning makes it right
Machinery in my blood
Can't stop this toxic flood
Break me down, build me up
Like father, like daughter's luck
[Outro]
These flashing lights remind me still
Of ambulance rides and hospital bills
But tonight I own this pain
Tonight I'll make it rain
Dance it out until I'm free
From every broken memory
Watch me now, I'm breaking through
This is what survivors do
