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
