So you need the metal
in your blood
to keep you alive
And you read the compass
in your eyes
so you can stay right
So you surf
the Earth's magnetic core
to keep you aligned
So you need the metal
in your blood
to keep you alive
Keep you alive
Keep you alive
So you turn
the water into steam
to push up the track
So you burn the furnace
in your chest
to anticipate that
So you wear the colour
in your cheek
the proof of the strive
So you need the metal
in your blood
to keep you alive
Keep you alive
Keep you alive
And I know
I'm a collaboration
Bacteria carbon and light
A florid orchestration
A recipe of fortune and time
Yeah it's a lot to take in
And when I try
I see a short word
I see a short word
I want to throw
the camera open wide
I want to keep
the multitudes in sight
I want to feel
the current pulsing through
So you need the metal
in your blood
to keep you alive
Keep you alive
Keep you alive
Keep you alive
And I know
I'm a collaboration
Bacteria carbon and light
A florid orchestration
A recipe of fortune and time
Yeah it's a lot to take in
And when I try I know
Bacteria carbon and light
A florid orchestration
A recipe of fortune and time
Yeah it's a lot to take in
When I try
I see a short word
I see a short word
I see a short word
I see a short word
