Darkness Within

Darkness Within - Machine Head Lyrics

Here in this darkness that I lay
Depression heavy in its way
And how my body aches to leave
And sing its final eulogy
My sons I love you ever more
And though the road back ends once more
I see the damage that I've done
And search for redemption
But I am just a broken man
Who's soul cries out to understand
How the madness shatters me
Upon the stage on bended knee
I scream aloud at skies above
That answer mute, bereft and loved
I struggle not to fall from grace
I sing the hyms of my disgrace
We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness withinMisery's forgotten chords
I strum in vain to please the lord
But he has never answered me
And faith has winged eternaly
An empty man who passed along
The woes of all religions wrong
And now the shadow veil it falls
Hear the clarion calls
So pray to music
Build a shrine
Worship in these desperate times
Fill your heart with every note
Cherish it and cast a flow
Cause God is in his laughing tone
Salvation is found alone
Haunted by its melody
Music, it will set you free (let it set you free)
We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness withinDo Do Do...We build cathedrals to our painEstablish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within
We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within
Do Do Do...
