Hugh Cornwell
Nerves of Steel
In the middle of the dayWhen things don't go your wayAnd when life starts to biteAnd it don't turn out rightAnd your top is spinning roundFar along the open groundThen you have to hang on tightOr you'll be blown from sightHow does it feel How does it feelHow does it feelIt takes nerves of steelIn the middle of the nightIf the stars ain't brightAnd you wonder till the dawnWhy you feel so forlornAnd you know that you are lostYou never count the costOf all the mistakes you madeAnd all the games you playedHow does it feelHow does it feelHow does it feelIt takes nerves of steelIn the middle of your lifeWhen you're staring at the knifeSongtexteAnd you're near the cutting edgeClose enough to make a wedgeBut you know it ain't enoughEven though you hate the stuffIt's a sweet and bitter pillBut after all it's only realHow does it feelHow does it feelHow does it feelIt takes nerves of steel
