Wings Of Steel
Stage Dolls Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(T. Flakne/B. Icon)
Workin' in the city, it's a hearless city
Every day's the same
And I'm on the line, from nine to five
Playin' the game
And it feels like heaven Friday night
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out
I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel'n thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is
Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high
Wakin' up on Monday, it's another five-days
Before lettin' go
Countin' every hour, tension's gettin' higher
Before that final whistle blows
And it feels like heaven Friday night
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out
I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel'n thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is
Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out
And it feels like heaven Friday night
(heaven Friday night)
I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel'n thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is




Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Stage Dolls's song "Wings of Steel" depict the mundane routine of working life in the city, from Mondays to Fridays, where the singer is just "playin' the game" and "countin' every hour."

The use of imagery, such as "wings of steel and thunder" and "endless highway" reinforce the idea of freedom and exhilaration that the singer experiences.

It conveys the message of seizing opportunities to escape the routine, be it through social or various forms of adventure, and make the most of the time we have.

Lyrics:

Working in the city, it's a heartless city
Every day's the same
And I'm on the line, from nine to five
Just playin' the game
And it feels like Heaven Friday night
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out

I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel and thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is
Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high

Waking up on Monday, it's another five days
Before letting go
Counting every hour, tension's getting higher
Before that final whistle blows

And it feels like Heaven Friday night
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out
I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel and thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is
Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high
Yeah, it feels like someone let me out

And it feels like Heaven Friday night
Heaven Friday night

I'll fly like an eagle wild
On wings of steel and thunder
I'll run with the wolves at night
I'll go where the action is
Ride fast on an endless highway
I'll fly like an eagle high

I'll ride ho yeah
On wings of steel and thunder

I'll fly away
On wings of steel and thunder
