Strong As Steel

For The Sake Of Talking



Wheels within wheels

You think you're such a big shot

Manipulate whoever you can

Just as long as you get what you want

You promise the world

"Stick with me: and I'll make you a star

'Cause I know the game

I've got it all planned

Without me you won't get very far



You talk but you don't say anything

You talk and your words don't mean a thing

You just talk for the sake of talking



Knowin' all the right people

You've got an 'in' with everyone

But I've heard from your so called friends

And they're all sayin' your face is run

Never admit to being wrong

Keep losing in your quest for fame

Look for the ladder in someone else's song

Then at the top you shout your own name



You talk but you don't say anything

You talk and your words don't mean a thing

You just talk for the sake of talking



You talk but you don't say anything

You talk and your words don't mean a thing

You just talk for the sake of talking



You talk as if you've been everywhere before

You act as if you know so much more

You never talk to, but you always talk down

You wanna soar like an eagle

But you're stuck on the ground



You talk but you don't say anything

You talk and your words don't mean a thing

You just talk for the sake of talking

(Repeat)



You talk but you don't say anything
