Lyrics

I still hear the crowd in my dreams when I'm sleeping
I can taste the dust like the whiskey I'm drinkin'
I can smell the blood like a rose in my garden
Watch the flowers grow on the graves of the pardoned
You don't know what danger is
Cause I got nothin' left but blood and skin
You thought the devil was your friend
I'm not your friend
I'm the man in the arena
 It's easy bein' strong behind the walls of your palace
You think you got the fire but your words are just ashes
But we ain't got not water so let that motherfucker burn!
Talk is cheap so step up for your turn
You've never tasted blood but think you're strong enough to take me
Another critic singin' in the cage of your safety
But I don't feel alive until I step up to the edge
And gaze into the pretty eyes of death
I'm your man in the arena
Just a man in the arena
Here's your man in the arena
I'm the man in the arena
