Machine Head
Kaleidoscope
[Intro]
We rise, we fall
And then we come together and
Despise this all
So, get your middle fingers in the air
And sing
They can't ignore us anymore
It's up to us
So, hear me out, 'cause I don't give a fuck

[Verse 1]
I'm stuck
I'm heading off the deep end like a truck
No brakes
I grip the wheel and start to shake
I beat my chest to feel alive
Not part of the hive
Comatose America
The zombies are in charge
Watch out for your brothers
Man, it really isn't that hard
Have our souls turned cold?
The path I walk is only
For the strong and the bold

[Pre-Chorus]
I walk along a lonely road
It's all I know
[Chorus]
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope
And if I'm lost
I don't want to be found
Haunted by sound

[Verse 2]
Open up the floor and start a pit
This shit
Is building up inside of me
I can't pretend
That I won't fuckin' snap tonight
You'll find me nine feet in the grave
Before I'm a slave
Catatonic ignorance
The cronies run the show
Preying on our differences
Divide and conquer the low
While I may be old
The world I see is only
For the strong and the bold

[Pre-Chorus]
I walk along a lonely road
It's all I know
[Chorus]
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope
And if I'm lost
I don't want to be found
Haunted by sound

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge]
Because we rise
We fall
And then we come together and
Despise this all
So, get your middle fingers in the air
And bleed
They can't ignore us anymore
'Cause I don't give a fuck

We rise
We fall
And then we come together and
Despise this all
So, get your middle fingers in the air
And bleed
They can't ignore us anymore
'Cause I don't give a fuck
We rise
We fall
And then we come together and
Despise this all
So, get your middle fingers in the air
And bleed
They can't ignore us anymore
'Cause I don't give a fuck

[Refrain]
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope

[Chorus]
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope

[Post-Chorus]
No hope
I can't cope
Songs in kaleidoscope

[Chorus]
This hole in my soul
Songs fill what religion won't
No hope, I can't cope
Music plays in kaleidoscope

[Outro]
And if I'm lost
I don't want to be found
Haunted by sound
