Flesh And Bone

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Bridge] This could decay Like the valley below Defenses are down The stakes are high The fairytale end The staggering blow You lead with your chin This could be real Simple [Chorus] And what are you made of? (Flesh and bone) And I'm running out of time (Flesh and bone) What are you made of? [Outro] 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
