Thermal Skin

[Verse 1] Summer's burning through my veins Dad's callused hands, still feel the pain Factory walls melt like skin Manchester's heat seeping in Memories drip like sweat on steel Everything I thought was real [Chorus] Breaking down, breaking through My flesh is turning into you Machinery hums beneath my bones As I dissolve, I'm not alone Heat wave rising, can't escape Watch my body reshape [Verse 2] Cotton mills and burning chrome Childhood ghosts find their way home Dad's accident plays on repeat While my skin peels in this heat Industrial rhythm in my blood Turning solid into flood [Bridge] Pulse like pistons underground Body boundaries breaking down Can't tell where I end or start Metal meeting flesh and heart Working class in summer's rage Breaking free from this steel cage [Chorus] Breaking down, breaking through My flesh is turning into you Machinery hums beneath my bones As I dissolve, I'm not alone Heat wave rising, can't escape Watch my body reshape [Verse 3] Northern sun burns different here Memory's edge cuts crystal clear Dad's scars mirror in my hands As reality expands Factory whispers in my head "Flesh and steel," that's what he said [Outro] Let the heat transform these walls Let my body rise and fall Through the haze of summer's dream Nothing's quite the way it seems Breaking down to build again In this melting urban rain
