MACHINE HEAD

- Darkness Within Lyrics

Here in this darkess that I lay,
Depression heavy in it's way,
Now my body aches to leave,
And sing it's final ulegy.
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 repemption.

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 within.

Mysteries 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 vail falls,
Hear the clown that calls.
So pray to music,
Build a shrine,
Worship it in these desperate times
Fill your heart with every note,
Cherish it and cast a vote.

Cause God is in his laughing tone,
Salvation is found alone,
Haunted by it's 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 within.

Do Do Do... and so on and so on.

Woah, Woah... Woooaaahhh

MUSIC MY SAVIOR,
SAVE ME,
MUSIC MY SAVIOR,
SAVE ME,
MUSIC MY SAVIOR,
SAVE ME,
MUSIC MY SAVIOR,
SAVE ME

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.

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... and so on and so on.

What is the meaning behind Darkness Within lyrics?


When we try to understand the message behind it, the composition 'Darkness Within' composed by Machine Head is an exploration into the conflicts of one’s own soul and the search for forgiveness. The use of metaphors of emotional suffering as constructing cathedrals and monuments, and the significance of music to God as a liberator and the Dark Ones' opponent, are extremely accentuated.
