Lyrics

Steam Will Rise

[Verse 1]

Contain yourself, I will compress

What I am too

Replace yourself with what you have

Your substitute

[Pre-Chorus]

Only wanted a piece of myself

[Chorus]

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise

[Verse 2]

Refrain, confess, contain, repress

Pretend I'm dead

Abuse myself, confuse myself

I won't be led

[Pre-Chorus]

Only wanted a piece of myself

Only wanted a piece of myself

Only wanted a piece of myself

[Chorus]

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise

Steam will rise

Esteem will rise
