Steel-plated Heart(mu) - The Kung-Fu Shutdown

Build a fire a thousand miles away To light my long way home I ride a comet, my trail is long to stay Silence is a heavy stone I fight the world and take all they can give There are times my heart hangs low Born to walk against the wind, born to hear my name No matter where I stand, I'm alone Stand and fight, live by your heart Always one more try, I'm not afraid to die Stand and fight, say what you feel Born with a heart of steel Burn the bridge behind you, leave no retreat There's only one way home Those who laugh and crowd the path, and cut each other's throats Will fall like melting snow They'll watch us rise with fire in our eyes They'll bow their heads, their hearts will hang low Then we'll laugh and they will kneel And know this heart of steel Was too hard to break, too hard to hold Stand and fight, live by your heart Always one more try, I'm not afraid to die Stand and fight, say what you feel Born with a heart of steel, ahh-ahh Born with a heart of steel Stand and fight, say what you feel Born with a heart of steel Stand and fight, live by your heart Always one more try, I'm not afraid to die Stand and fight, say what you feel Born with a heart of steel

In her red sun dress with braids in her hair She crawled out her window and ran to meet him there Where she gave up on youth and gave into desire And the touch of his hands lit a wildfire And a sliver of light Cuts through the dark And the moonlight shines On Della Jane's heart The cold wind was blowing as she waited for his embrace But it only got colder when she saw the look on his face His blindsiding words of his new love for Anna Lee Filled her with rage as he told her of their plans to leave And a sliver of light Cuts through the dark And the moonlight shines On Della Jane's heart Now the weight of her world was heavy as lead But she drug it on down to the ol' riverbed With her knees in the mud she looked up and prayed "Lord, please wash all of my sins and his body away" Wash it all away, wash it all away And a sliver of light Cuts through the dark And the moonlight shines On Della Jane's heart On Della Jane's heart, on Della Jane's heart On Della Jane's heart, on Della Jane's heart
