What do they know Of grit and taming fire With lily-white hands and eyes With no desire To see this life as more than waiting on another How can they know where power lies? You hear the scream Of metal that's as good as your name The spinning wheels You swear that they all say the same And in the heat That most would jump just to escape You stay to see the devil without a shape So here I am With twisted fingers forming a prayer From steel and smoke My message it hangs in the air My burning lungs may never sing But are my witness To what no human words can ever express My word my bind Pin pulled, straight line My task, clear mind Won't fall down now Lower your head They say Go where you're led Don't stray I put my faith In this feeling of freedom Each day mine I'll shut my eyes Under silent skies I'll shut my eyes Guilty and pure wander blind Believing we are blessed And in our bodies confined Are numb to consequence In what we trust as our guide We find our final test As salt or seed is how we'll rest Can it be wrong To listen to the calm in your head? To value work For which we know we were meant? To not sit back And wait on hollow bonds to be done Or given bread from the barrel of a gun? My word always my bind With my pin pulled kick the straight line It's in my task I'm of a clear mind Off like a shot Pushed hard as she got They'll hear me coming Lower your head They say Go where you're led Don't stray I put my faith In this feeling of freedom Each day mine I'll shut my eyes Under silent skies I'll shut my eyes Under silent skies I'll shut my eyes
