Machine Head Lyrics

Album: The Burning Red

The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears

Yes I've walked the path thats righteous 

Many men have walked before 

Yeah this pain cell the broken shell 

Scraped shackled onto the floor 

So welcome to the world that I lived in 

Puking out violent hate 

My world entered a false recluse 

Sickening from disease 

But then I see 

This thing in me 

Make me want it more than you 

But I deny your flesh 

Cause pain's my wish 

Racing on self destruct 

So hold on to the end... 

Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears 

A tribute to the strength built through the years 

Oh yes I've walked the path that 

gives me confidence strong and pure 

Now I realized that freedom rises 

from confronting the source 

I built these walls around me 

And I can't break them all away 

And I focus on the strength I call 

Insufferable and insane 

So hold on to the end... 

Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears 

A tribute to the strength built through the years 

A tribute to soul... 

Take this 

Focus 

Madness 

To take... 

...hold...on...on...on... 

hold on.. falling.. please let go.. 

hold on.. i'm falling... i'm falling down again... 

Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears 

Attribute to the strength built through the years 

A tribute cos time will set 'em off 

Cos time will set 'em off
