Flesh And Steel |
You left your nation and relations behind |
You’re on your own now |
You’re working in the mines |
They tell you this behaviour isn’t normally right |
But it’s gotta be better than staying out all night |
She walks out under the lights |
Flesh and steel |
They hung on every word |
Every move and feel |
But you an only count on love to pull you through |
'Cause home just ain’t a place you can go back to |
A cross hides victims of the crash under spell |
You were walking on the edge, girl |
But you’re back in your head and all’s well |
It far outreaches all the lives of all the dead |
Oh man, you hand them your heart |
And they hand you your head |
She walks out under the lights |
Flesh and steel |
They hung on every word |
Every move and feel |
But you can only give them what your life reveals |
And trust just ain’t a thing you can hold |
What is this crime that I’m dealing with |
I need to know |
I’ve got this pulse that I’m reeling to |
Let me know |
I feel like giving up |
Let the ghost go (go, go) |
But part of me never would |
It never would you know |
(I said no, no, no) |
I’m done telling lies, I ain’t got anymore |
And the sons keep knocking on the master’s door |
You’ve got big plans, you’ve seen big spaces |
Well just remember that it’s one man’s trial |
That another man faces |
She steps into the lights |
Flesh and steel |
They hung on every word |
Every move and feel |
But you can only give them what your life reveals |
She says I don’t even worry about dying |
Along the way |
I know where I’m going anyway |
