[Вступление]

Sirens cut the winter air
Bootprints vanish by the stair
A locked room, a broken frame
Everybody knows the name

[Куплет 1]

You kept the ledger under floorboards
Names in ink and hands in debt
Bought your silence from the corner
Paid in blood you can't forget
A cheap gold watch beside the body
Stopped at quarter after two
Every lie you sold for shelter
Built a cage around you

[Предприпев]

No mask can hide the mark
No deal can tame the dark

[Припев]

Crime wears a crown of rust
Feeds on fear and calls it trust
When the hammer finds the stone
You face the sentence alone
No witness, no alibi
Truth has teeth and time won't lie
You can run through every town
But the past will drag you down

[Куплет 2]

The driver waits beside the warehouse
Engine coughing through the rain
One more bag, one more promise
One more stranger on the chain
Then the blue lights flood the loading bay
Glass explodes across the floor
Every exit seals behind you
Every friend has kept the score

[Предприпев]

No mask can hide the mark
No deal can tame the dark

[Припев]

Crime wears a crown of rust
Feeds on fear and calls it trust
When the hammer finds the stone
You face the sentence alone
No witness, no alibi
Truth has teeth and time won't lie
You can run through every town
But the past will drag you down

[Связка]

Hear the courtroom doors collide
Hear the names you tried to hide
The same cold hand that signed the deal
Now turns the lock and makes it real
[Guitar Solo]
[Breakdown]
Confess!
The walls remember!
Confess!
The ash still burns!
Confess!
No road forever!
The wheel comes back—
The wheel returns!
[Final Chorus]
Crime wears a crown of rust
Feeds on fear and calls it trust
When the hammer finds the stone
You face the sentence alone
No witness, no alibi
Truth has teeth and time won't lie
You can run through every town
But the past will drag you down
[Outro]
Bootprints fade beneath the rain
Names remain inside the frame
The night goes quiet, locks turn slow
And every debt comes home
