Lyrics Machine Head

Machine Head

Now We Die

And with this now we die

Standing at the edge of the world

Uncertainty calling as the page unfurls

Fortune, heaven or hell

Shedding my body of this mortal shell

Black steel and iron

A lion heart is forged from these bones

Fear not, the discontent you hide

Awake from the slumber and define this time

No fear to pay the price

And with this now we die

Ashes to ashes

The ocean crashes

Louder and louder it cries

Over and over

The sands wash over

Facing, embracing the tides

And with this now we die

And with this now we die

Screaming violence into the void

Is anyone listening or is all destroyed?

Fighting heaven and earth

Saving your children from their pain and hurt

Bloodstone & diamonds

Nothing can break the strength of these stones

Cast off the shackles of the past

Live in the moment nothing ever lasts

Now cross the bridge of sighs

And with this now we die

Ashes to ashes

The ocean crashes

Louder and louder it cries

Over and over

The sands wash over

Facing, embracing the tides

And with this now we die

Are you ready to die?

Standing at the edge of the world

The damned are we abused and beat,

We're left for dead

We raise our head

For we are strong, and they are wrong

So scream with me

"I do believe"

I need your help, for I have knelt

Held fist at skies, and cried out, "Why"?

Your shoulder strength, it gives me length

We lift ourselves, together meld

So take my hand, and don't look back

And sing with me

"Let new life be"

Old life goodbye, and now we die

For we are one

Forever young

And with this now we die

And with this now we die

Are you ready?

I standing at the edge of the world

Standing at the edge of the world
