Stainless Steel

No one said that it would be painless Always reaching for that higher social status So be grateful, be gracious When a Christ like figure of fame comes down to save us Do you use the steps or do you dive? Do you lower yourself in, hold your breath and count to five? Does a cold sensation make you feel alive? And does the rest of life feel boring afterwards? I'm not made of stainless steel I'm made of blood I'm made of bone No one said that it wouldn't hurt Scratching 'round for recognition with your fingers in the dirt It could be better, it could be worse But when times done we all end up as food for the worms Are you scared of your fearless nature? Vitamin D and echinacea Does it crawl up your spine like an eight legged creature? Or does it dangle from above waiting to greet you? I'm not made of stainless steel I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm not waiting by the phone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone Did no one tell you to hedge your bets? D'you wake up in the night, drenched in your own sweat? D'you live in silence, with words unspoken? Scared that when you pull the cord, the parachute won't open? Are you scared of your fearless nature? Are you scared of your fearless nature? Are you scared of your fearless nature? Are you scared of your fearless nature? I'm not made of stainless steel I'm made of something real I'm not made of stainless steel I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm not waiting by the phone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm made of blood I'm made of bone I'm not made of stainless steel I'm made of blood
