Machine Head
Beyond the Pale
[Verse 1]
I am skin and bones
Broken stones
See the scars that I show
I live outside the bounds
In the unknown
I can't ingratiate to the hate
'Cause their world suffocates
Carve my own path
And form my destiny's shape
This storm won't wait
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The rain is falling down upon me
[Chorus]
Beyond the pale
I found salvation
Emancipation
Beyond the pale
I found my heroes:
The freaks and zeroes
[Verse 2]
I live outside the lines
Got no time for the willfully blind
I'll build a world of mine
Sever the ties
I'll break down every wall
Fight and claw
Take their punches, stand tall
My middle finger raised
So, fuck 'em all
And let them crawl
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The rain is falling down upon me
[Chorus]
Beyond the pale
I found salvation
Emancipation
Beyond the pale
I found my heroes:
The freaks and zeroes
[Bridge]
The snakes come slithering
Out of their holes at night
Dirty water clouds my soul
The needle lies
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Weather the storm
My heart is drowning
The rain is falling down upon me
[Chorus]
Beyond the pale
I found salvation
Emancipation
Beyond the pale
I found my heroes:
The freaks and zeroes
[Outro]
Beyond the pale!
Beyond the pale!
Beyond the pale!
Beyond the pale!
