Sheer Mag - Steel Sharpens Steel Lyrics

In the dark, in the burning forge
Sparked by the funeral pyre
I was smouldering in the cauldron
I was hammered out by the fire

In the light I was frozen stiff
Exposed in my misery
I was broken and awoken
By the nightmare of history

If you don't play the game
Then you're sure to lose
If you're gonna live or die
You better be the one to choose

It's a chain reaction
When you turn the other cheek
Remember if you're looking for action
And you're feeling dull and weak

Steel sharpens steel
Steel sharpens
Steel

In the crowd and behind my back
I can hear what they say
I've been beaten and defeated
But I'm fighting for a better day

It may be hard to believe
But I stay strong for you
Sometimes I have my doubts
And I don't know what to do
