Garbage - Metal Heart lyrics

rate me

I wish I had a metal heart

I could cross the line

I wish I was half as good

As you think I am

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

I 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

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 your 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 meant with me in mind

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

Lay my burden down

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

The world is round
