Iron Fist Lyrics
The wish you plead and the things you sought
We all think, we all thought
The things I've done, and the world I've seen
Don't measure up to you, my queen
Oh, I take one for the other, and work my way through this machine
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh no
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh no
The first train's out, the last one draws
We'll all sing, we're going home
As the curtain swings in to cover all our secrets kept, our love enough
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Give me the strength I know and please believe me
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you going to do?
'Cause I don't want to lose your hold on me [x2]
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh, give me the, oh no, please believe
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you?
What are you?
Just remember
Pay no attention to this iron fist, this iron fist
Just remember
Pay no attention to this iron, this iron fist
God damn, this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
God damn, this cursed
God damn
God damn, this cursed
God damn, this cursed
Iron fist
We all think, we all thought
The things I've done, and the world I've seen
Don't measure up to you, my queen
Oh, I take one for the other, and work my way through this machine
When I lose control
Oh no
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh no
We'll all sing, we're going home
As the curtain swings in to cover all our secrets kept, our love enough
When I lose control
Give me the strength I know and please believe me
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you going to do?
When I lose control
Oh, give me the, oh no, please believe
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you?
What are you?
Pay no attention to this iron fist, this iron fist
Just remember
Pay no attention to this iron, this iron fist
When I lose control
God damn, this cursed
God damn
God damn, this cursed
God damn, this cursed
Iron fist

Sirius is released from the hospital and returns home. On the drive back, he reflects on how angry he was when Meri confessed everything just before the car crash; not at her, and not at Colten, but at himself, for not being able to give her the emotional support she needed. He realizes how stubborn he had been when he decided to leave her for the unknown on his mission to the Keywork; he thought he would discover something amazing out there, and though he certainly did, he understands too late that none of it mattered as much as his wife. If he hadn't left her, she would likely still be alive and he could have salvaged their marriage. Instead, his selfish desired ruined the best thing he had.
I read an interview somewhere that Co&Ca's next album might be about a character from the previous story, so I'm hoping maybe this is about Al the Killer?
The end of this song makes me think it's partially about when Claudio broke his hand horseplaying with his brother.
Actually, the more I thought about it, this song is probably about Jesse.
