lyrics

Little bridge across valley
Seems not that bad, it’s not that bad really
Little girl walks along
And the bridge gives out, the bridge gives out nearly
And I keep my fingers crossed
That the stainless steel, it won’t go soft
At least she won’t get lost
If the marching band play and never stop

Keep your hands on that railing
Death is failing now but it sure is trailing
Please don’t close your eyes
Don’t take them off the cliff you’re scaling
And I keep my fingers crossed
That the stainless steel, it won’t go soft
At least she won’t get lost
If the marching band play and never stop

She is a lightning rod
She is a lightning rod

Counting all the things that could go wrong,
I’m strong but the list is so damn long
I can feel something in the air
A bolt is loose, an engineer that doesn’t care

And I won’t know what to do
If you, you don’t see it coming too

She is a lightning rod
She is a lightning rod
