Chrome

It's not the things that I can't change that bother me And it's not the things that I don't know that undermine me It's not the thing that I can't hold or the balancing wire That broke, that throws me It's not the fact that You walked out that bewilders me It's not the sleep that I can't steal that wires me It's not the coffee or the pills It's not this space that I can't fill that kills me Well, in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome It's been bent 'til it was twisted And in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome It's been burned But it's still willing to try and shine It's not the drunks and their devices That provoke me And it's not the politics of love and distance And all that that shit evokes in me It's not the Sunday morning fights Or this soul on ice that numbs me And it's not the passing of another Indian Summer that saddens me It's not the shutter in the undertow That bears down on me It's not everything ending as it begins Or the loneliness that grins that destroys me Well, in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome It's been bent 'til it was twisted And in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome It's been burned But it's still willing to try and shine, yeah shine
