Flesh and Steel

You left your nation and relations behind
You're on your own now, you work in the mines
Well, they tell you this behavior isn't normally right
Oh, but it's got to be better than staying out all night

She walks into the light, flesh and steel
They hang on every word, every move and feel
But you can only give 'em what your life reveals
And trust is made a thing that you can hold

I break into a sweat
Hey cross-eyed victims of the crash and the spill
You were walking on the edge, girl
Put your back in your head and all's well
Your far-out reaches all the lives of all the dead
Oh man, you hand them your heart and they hand you your head

She walks into the light, flesh and steel
They hang on every word, every move and feel
But you can only give 'em what your life reveals
And trust is made a thing that you can hold

What is this crime that I'm dealing with?
I need to know
I got this pulse that I'm reeling to
Let me know, know, know

I feel like giving up
Let the ghost go, go, go
But part of me never would
It never would, you know
I say no, no, no

I've got some lines I ain't got anymore, no more
And the sun's keep knocking on the master's door
They say you got big plans and you see big faces
Well just remember that it's one man's trial that another man faces

Ooh, well she steps into the light, flesh and steel
They hang on every word, every move and feel
Oh no, but you can only give 'em what your life reveals
She says that I don't even worry about dying along the way
She says my life
I know where I'm going anyway
