MACHINE HEAD(US)- Crashing Around You


1. Crashing Around You

I am your nightmares, true scares
That dream when you can't stop from falling
Can't fight, can't run
Can't stop the person you've become

I am your heartbreaks, mistakes
That place inside your hate
I am that shadow following every move, reminding you
That it's never good enough, never good enough
Even though you'll try and try
I'm gonna call your bluff
Because I am the thing bringing the feelings when...

Your world comes crashing around you
Smashes down around you
When will you see that you cannot hide from me?

When you feel darkness, hopeless
Can't cope with all the stress
I'll make you hate life bring strife
Remember failures hardened stare
And it's never gonna change, never gonna change
Always they'll be judging you
Compared to who and who
You trust in me but I only live to see

Your world come crashing around you
Smash down around you
When will you see that you cannot hide from me?

When I come for you
When I see through you
When I eat through you
When I destroy you

You'll think you're betrayed, astray
I'll leave you ripped and torn so bad you
Can't trust, can't love
Can't understand why life's so fucked
I'm deep inside your mind
In constant remind
If you leave your thoughts to me, believe
I'll make sure that I see

Your world come crashing around you
Smash down around you
When will you see that you cannot hide from me?

I'll make your world come crashing around you
Smash down around you
I'll let you see why cannot hide from me
Because I am you


2. Silver (live)

Yes, I hold some keys of gold
A cigarette, a silver bullet
Angels cry and devils lie
The world is our stage
Look inside and try and find
The part of me that tore
I wish I knew what I go through
Behind...

Take my hand across this land
Escape this, all hell inside
Create this man to make my stand
And break this hardened shell inside

I see the man in me
The lines along my face are drawn in
I believe reflections bleed
The sorrows of the souls
Let me know the hurt that shows
And wish it all away
Cos now you'll see what is paining me
Collide...

Take my hand across this land
Escape is all I have inside
Create this man to make my stand
And break this hardened shell in...

I see the walls around me fall around me
And everything's alright
I see the god amoung me fall amoung me
And everything's beside
I see the walls around you, tie and bound you
Drown cos you're so cold..
Cold..
Cold..

Take my hand across this land
Escape is all I have inside
Create this man to make my stand
And Break this hardened shell inside
So take my hand and cross this land
And Break this hardned shell in,
hardened shell in,
hardened shell inside...


3. Ten Ton Hammer (live)

I am the thing that makes you sick
I am the blame that gets placed quick
detect the crack within your lie
I'll be the wrath of your disdain
I'll be the fear in you ingrained
become the facts that you deny

[chorus:]
I can feel this pain is real
I hate deep down inside
and like broken glass you'll shatter
with bloody fists I'll batter
like a ten ton hammer (thrown?)

I'll be the trembling in your breath
trickle of blood upon your flesh
you'd love to watch me take the fall
I'll be the thing that you despise
cause I'm a be there standing tall

[chorus]

I can't stand or take another day my friend
you could learn a thing or two

[chorus]
