Six Feet of Steel

Intro

Verse 1 Bar above my throat, two-twenty-five Same weight as the dirt above the box Spotter's looking at his phone Like a priest who don't believe in God Take a breath, ribs go tight Bench creaks like a coffin lid Boys, I don't make peace with much But I make peace with this

Pre-Chorus Lower it slow Touch the chest Then we'll see what's left

Chorus Six feet of steel Same as the dirt above the box Press it up or it presses down Pick which side of the lid you want

Verse 2 Cousin of mine went under last spring Heart, they said, just stopped Casket weighed less than a barbell does Six men carried, didn't even shrug I weigh more than the man I bury Carry more than the box could hold Some days the bar's the only one Heavy enough to fit my soul

Pre-Chorus Lower it slow Touch the chest Then we'll see what's left

Chorus Six feet of steel Same as the dirt above the box Press it up or it presses down Pick which side of the lid you want

Bridge They'll bury me in something cheap Pine, particleboard, who cares But the bar above me right now That one I picked myself Six feet of steel Same as the dirt above the box Press it up or it presses down Pick which side of the lid you want Pick which side of the lid you want
