Metal Heart lyrics

I wish I had a metal heart

I could cross the line

I wish that I was

half as good

as you think I am

but now that we know for sure

they're telling lies when they say

no one gets hurt and therefore

nobody dies

you know it's hard to believe

anything that you hear

they say the world is round

wish I was as big

as you

you'd have to tell the truth

I'd be nothing

you could hurt

nothing you could use

but now that we know for sure

they're telling lies when they say

no one gets hurt and therefore

nobody dies

you know it's hard to believe

anything that you hear

they say the world is round

the world is round?

I want to be dependable

I want to be courageous and good

I want to be faithful so that

I can be heroic and true

I want to be a friend you can

rely on you can lean on and

trust

I want to understand so I can

forgive and be willing to love

I wish I wasn't flesh and blood

I would not be scared

of bullets built with me in mind

for then i could be saved

my sweet lord take care of me

for I think I'm done

kiss my mother on her cheek and

Lay my burden down

but now that we know for sure they're

telling lies when they say

no one gets hurt and therefore

nobody dies

you know it's hard to believe

anything that you hear

they say the world is round

the world is round?

the world is round?!
