Sheer Mag – Steel Sharpens Steel lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
Basking 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

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a chain reaction
When you turn the other cheek, yeah
Remember if you're looking for action
And you're feeling dull and weak

[Chorus]
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens
Steel sharpens steel
Steel

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a chain reaction
When you turn the other cheek, yeah
Remember if you're looking for action
And you're feeling dull and weak

[Chorus]
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens
Steel sharpens steel
Steel

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a chain reaction
When you turn the other cheek, yeah
Remember if you're looking for action
And you're feeling dull and weak

[Chorus]
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens
Steel sharpens steel
Steel

[Outro]
(Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
Steel (Ooh yeah)
Sharpens steel
Steel sharpens steel
