| 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 |
