Flesh And Bone |
| I’ve gone through life |
| White-knuckled in the moments that left me behind |
| Refusing to heed the yield |
| I penetrate the force fields in the blind |
| They say I’ll adjust |
| God knows I must |
| But I’m not sure how |
| This natural selection picked me out to be |
| A dark horse running in a fantasy |
| Flesh and bone |
| Am I running out of time? |
| Flesh and bone |
| Somewhere outside that finish line |
| I square up and break through the chains |
| And I head like a raging bull |
| Anointed by the blood, I take the reins |
| Cut from the cloth, of a flag that |
| Bears the name of «Battle Born» |
| They call me the contender |
| Listen for the bell |
| My face flashing crimson from the fires of hell |
| What are you afraid of? |
| And what are you made of? |
| Flesh and bone |
| And I’m running out of time |
| Flesh and bone |
| And what are you made of? |
| Flesh and bone |
| Man I’m turning on a dime |
| Flesh and bone |
| This could decay |
| Like the valley below |
| Defenses are down |
| The stakes are high |
| (Scouting the crowd for a face of compassion) |
| The fairytale end |
| (To face off the journey that fathers no more) |
| The staggering blow |
| (You'll find the truth in the roots of desire) |
| You lead with your chin |
| (Thinkin' with your corners, just a compass and the sun) |
| This could be real |
| (Thinkin' with your corners, just a) |
| Simple |
| And what are you made of? |
| (Flesh and bone) |
| And I’m running out of time |
| (Flesh and bone) |
| What are you made of? |
| He faces forward |
| Trading in his blindness for the glow of love |
| And time is raging, may it rage in vain |
| And you always had it, but you never knew |
| So boots and saddles, get on your feet |
| There’s no surrender, cause there’s no retreat |
| The bells are sobbing, in this monster land |
| We are the descendants of giant men |
