Thomas Oliver - Steel On The Strings Lyrics

It feels like a haze of confusion
I can't tell who's winning or losing
I don't know
I don't know
Sometimes I don't see the difference
Between dying and living
I don't know
I don't know
But even through this up and down
I'll always be around and round
'Cause I love fire in the rain
I love smiling on the train
I love the feeling when the pill is kicking in
And I love the sound of the steel on the strings
Mama just lost her father
Fighting got harder and harder
Till he let go
He let go
At just 19, he was a soldier
A rifle was slung on his shoulder
And he left home
He left home
A Libyan port he defended
The Rats Of Tobruk don't surrender
Never spoke of it to anyone
97 times around the sun
'Cause he loved greeting every day
He loved a table tennis game
When he was eighty, he would he play me and he'd win
And he loved the sound
Of a trumpet in the wind
'Cause I love fire in the rain
I love smiling on the train
I love the feeling when the pill is kicking in
And I love the sound of the steel on the strings
Yeah, I love the sound of the steel on the strings

It feels like a haze of confusion
I can't tell who's winning or losing
I don't know
I don't know
Sometimes I don't see the difference
Between dying and living
I don't know
I don't know
But even through this up and down
I'll always be around and round
'Cause I love fire in the rain
I love smiling on the train
I love the feeling when the pill is kicking in
And I love the sound of the steel on the strings
Mama just lost her father
Fighting got harder and harder
Till he let go
He let go
At just 19, he was a soldier
A rifle was slung on his shoulder
And he left home
He left home
A Libyan port he defended
The Rats Of Tobruk don't surrender
Never spoke of it to anyone
97 times around the sun
'Cause he loved greeting every day
He loved a table tennis game
When he was eighty, he would he play me and he'd win
And he loved the sound
Of a trumpet in the wind
'Cause I love fire in the rain
I love smiling on the train
I love the feeling when the pill is kicking in
And I love the sound of the steel on the strings
Yeah, I love the sound of the steel on the strings
