One of my Favorite Machine Head songs, figured I might as well do a cover, and I might as well give vocals on the cover as well, I know I messed up a few times, but hey, I never fancied myself as a Singer!
A mixture of Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Hard Rock and almost everything in between.
Story behind the song
Ask Robb Flynn
Lyrics
When she looked right into my eyes and said to me
The hurt that you try to hide is killing me
I drink a thousand lies,
To freeze the past in time
I've tried to fill this silence up
But now it's back again
See the pain in my heart
See the scars deep inside
My God, I'm down in this hole again
With the laughter I smile
With the tears that I cry
Keep going down this road called life
Called life...
When she says that I'm insecure,
I guess she's right
'Cause just when I think
I'm sure, alone at night
The agonies come back,
This pain won't let me be
I try to fill the silence up
But now it's back again
See the pain in my heart
See the scars deep inside
My God, I'm down in this hole again
With the laughter I smile
With the tears that i cry
Keep going down this road called life
Don't need your sympathy
I just want for this silence
To stop killing me
It's deafening
It's deafening
This silence inside me
It's deafening
It's deafening
The silence inside me
The silence inside ...
I try to fill the silence up
But now it's back again
It's empty like a suicide
This pain inside
See the pain in my heart
See the scars deep inside
My God, I'm down in this hole again
With the laughter I smile
with the tears that I cry
Keep going down this road called life
Don't need your sympathy
I just want for this silence to stop killing me.
