Walking the Steel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rising from the ashes, floor by floor
Reaching up into the sky, where the eagles soar
The city sleeps, life goes on
Hope is still alive, born again
The towers rise above the New York skies
[Pre-Chorus]
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
[Chorus]
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
[Verse 2]
A thousand lights are blazing, into the night
Marching on around the clock, nothing stops the fight
High above the city, the work goes on and on
Racing to the heavens, until the job is done
[Pre-Chorus]
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
[Chorus]
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
[Bridge]
Remember the heroes
Remember them all
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
[Verse 3]
Rising like the phoenix towards the sky
See the mighty towers, reaching high
Make them strong, work the steel
Build them to survive
Born again, the twins will stand
Hope will never die
[Pre-Chorus]
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
[Chorus]
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
Rising from the ashes, floor by floor
Reaching up into the sky, where the eagles soar
The city sleeps, life goes on
Hope is still alive, born again
The towers rise above the New York skies
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
A thousand lights are blazing, into the night
Marching on around the clock, nothing stops the fight
High above the city, the work goes on and on
Racing to the heavens, until the job is done
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
Remember the heroes
Remember them all
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
Rising like the phoenix towards the sky
See the mighty towers, reaching high
Make them strong, work the steel
Build them to survive
Born again, the twins will stand
Hope will never die
Rising from the ashes for all the world to see
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
Walking the steel
Build them high
Walking the steel
You touch the sky
