Lyrics and translation
Original
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 color in your cheek, the proof of the strife.
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 foreign 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 wanna throw the camera open wide. So you need the metal in your blood.
I wanna keep the multitude in sight. So you need the metal in your blood.
I wanna feel the current pulsing through. So you need the metal in your blood.
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 foreign orchestration.
A recipe of fortune and time. Yeah, it's a lot to take in.
And when I try, I know I'm a collaboration.
Bacteria, carbon, and light. A foreign 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 see a short word.
I see a short word.
