if i were alive

if i were real

would you survive

what would you feel



heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine

as sentimental as our broken dreams



let me die for rock and roll

let me die to save so soul

let me die, let me die rock and roll

let the word forgive the past

let all the girls kiss the poison lies

let me go, let me go rock and roll



heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine

when they're metal, in their metal machines

heavy metal, heavy metal machine



if i were dead

would my records sell

could you even tell

is it just as you hope



heavy metal, heavy metal machine

it's all our mental, to all the once stiff wings

heavy metal, heavy metal machine



let me die for rock and roll

let me die and save my soul

let me go, let me go rock and roll

let the word forgive the past

let all the girls kiss the poison lies

let me go, let me die rock and roll



heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine

when they're metal, and they're trying an excuse

heavy metal, heavy metal machine



will i survive

is it up to me

could you understand

that it's not yours to keep



heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine

heavy metal, heavy metal machine
