Machine Head - Take My Scars lyrics

rate me

It's been around for a thousand years And it'll be here for plenty more It is the face hidden in disgrace That has become now an open sore It is a false messiah It is the face of pain The bringer of the bittersweet The heretic insane Take my scars Through hands of God I found a better way To break the walls Fed all the lies and desensitized Taught to believe that it is the way Taught to divide and exactly why You'll never understand my rage You've never had to borrow You've never had to steal You eat it with your silver spoon For me it's real Take my scars Through hands of God I found a better way To break the walls Blood and concrete Piss and wine Whores that fuck To feel divine They'll clean their needles In their shrine In ignorance It's bliss you find Why can't you fuckin' open Open up your eyes
