Machine Head - Blood Of The Zodiac Lyrics
a blind man asked an angel
could you please help
but was told
take me from this altar
i won't falter
this bitter man would understand
through all his life, a needle had
been his saviour, been his god
so he tried to make a change
tried to rearrange
gun at his side, suicide
[pre-chorus:]
i can't help feel i been mistreated
[chorus:]
despise all that i see
all that i feel
all that i want to be
burned, blistered and raw
tearing apart
all that is sane to me
came to seed
rain down blood like fire
born desire
racist breed
his dominance of ignorance
was rhetoric that made no sence
some believed in all the lies
but in my mind i know what's wrong
way too fucking strong
taste the revenge on my tongue
[chorus]
[lead: Logan]
[lead: Robb]
and now is my time to rise
and now is our time to rise
our time
to rise
ignorant, indignant
promises made in vain
rise, i can't see like you
rise, i can't feel like you
rise, never be like you
rise, time for all us to
rise...

Machine Head Blood Of The Zodiac Comments
it took a lotta sleepless nights but i managed to get tht insanely beautiful solo...
Usually missing lyrics:
"Sometimes I wished I died, thought I was better of dead.
Seen two man get stabbed, had four guns to my head.
And I'm not trying to brag, I'm just telling you a story.
Just look into these eyes, if they fail to see your glory!"
Miód na moje uszy :)
Lets fucking go
2019 still a banging tune.
Love non nigga era machine head lol
Mind Blowing Metal Track 10 out of 10 its right up there.
it's fucking beautyfull
Some heavy beefy shit.
gaawdaaaamn,tht solo...
Rip machine head '$ band 😦😢😥
Most powerful metal band
critics always say this album didn't go where the band was headed. This is my favourite song of all time and this is the album that made me love metal, so fuck you critics, you don't know shit
logan leaving ruined this once great band :( it still hurts
@raider101416 i wonder if it rob was issue i think it is
What do you think his issue is?
@raider101416 he got too political and started to soften up in that latest album
Most bands stay with thr sound but they kinda changed man
Another great MH song!
💕 Still listening 2018 💕
Fucking sick
faaaaark yeah.
охуенно
one of my favorite bands.I've been listening to them for years
Half pAriah not pEriah
why isnt there more views people really need education
I listen to my Machine head cds thousands of times over and over...never gets old
they never caught the zodiac killer
insane lyrics , insane riffs
Man, I just love this track. The ending always leaves me pumped up.
RIIIIIIISE!! :)
CCLJunky same me ! awesome track ! greets!
I remember back in the nineties I've bought this with RATM _People Of The Sun_ ;
really good stuff indeed
Though _Burn My Eyes_ is on another level, quite ahead of it's time back then
Just look into these eyes, how does it feel to see your glory?
This song saved my life when i was a teen. I wanted to kill myself and this song taught me that I needed to stay and fight the people and things that made me feel that way. One of the best metal songs ever. RISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well to me quite the contrary, I started doing heroine while listening to this ( and to _Neurosis_ a lot) and I've quit only three years ago
:)
Ian McCarthy
Keep fighting brother!
Ian McCarthy glad to have you still around.
Disssssspise. All that i see...all that i feeeeeeeel...all that i want to be.....burned., blistered and raw...taring apart...all that is saaaane to meeeee!!!
My Favourite Band Ever!
Such raw emotion
Is this a song about zodiac killer
Among other things, it appears to be about heroin addiction.
It's a song about (against) racism and people who spread racism.
So evil I love it \m/
Needs more radio play and more concert play!
Here's to them playing it on the next tour cycle.
Well they broke up 😣
this is probably one of my favorite metal tracks ever.
You are my Brothers too i agree this is my fav metal song, gonna get this played at my funeral and blow those greaving fuckers heads off HAIL!!!!!
Mine too
Hear! Hear!
My favourite tune from Machine Head, no contest.
you-are-my-brother. I fucking agree with you
strong,loud,clearly...indefinitely!
the one that i prefer after years..so i say YES and thumb up u too mutafucker
That riff at 4:34 is amazing.. such emotion
Damn straight!
A masterpiece. The ultimate song of old Machine Head.
Dude, what the fuck is wrong with this Unto the locust hatin'? Am I the only one who sincerely ADORES the album? Musically it is awesome, the lyrics are true and come right from Flynn's heart. It's not like that they're tryin' to ride the Nu metal wave again, or somethin. They are being metal to the narrow of their bones, and that is the cool thing about MH. I fucking love them, every single song they wrote has changed my life in some way. So stop hating their stuff, learn how to LOVE it.
locust wAS TIGHT
Robb Flynn said that there was a alot of drug use on this album, thus the "atmospheric", melodies, and dynamics, i kinda wished they would go back lol. this album just fuckin' crushed! when it came out. MACHINE "FUCKIN" HEAD!!!
This and the first album are untouchable. They have gotten good in recent years but never to this level
So true, and so many other bands had done so during that era of predominately artistic merit, not sale and marketability; a very revitalizing time for many, musically speaking.
*Solos*
some times i had wished i died
thought i was better off dead
seen three men get stabbed
brought xxxxxx to my head
and i dont try to brag
I'm just telling you a story
just look into these eyes
they feel the same glory
and nows my time to rise
THANK YOU!!! I can finally sleep!
I think its:
Sometimes I wished I died, thought I was better of dead.
Seen two man get stabbed, had four guns to my head.
And I'm not trying to brag, just telling you a story.
Look into these eyes, as they fail to see your glory...
Shit, i havent heard this song for like 10 years. I dont really listen to metal anymore, but this shit totally gets me!
@ATARITR So that's what he was fuckin saying huh? Could never quite make it out.
@GohanMH1 i dont agree. but yeah they are different albms. my faavourite album is the blackned but song is the new one. I Am Hell. you cant say that that isn't old machine head.
I have this album in fucking awesome cassette tape format which I still use your eargasm when bathing every day
@GohanMH1 Yep. I thought the first 2 albums were great. All down hill after that.
@sixfeetontop Pantera's Rise had more or less taken that title and kept it nicely. Besides, Blood of the Zodiac is as intriguing a title as this fucking awesome song and guitar and the lyrics.
@thehavoc3 You sir, are spittin Facts
I think they could've called this song "Rise" as well, if they had chosen to!
@panayiotis131 Clenching the fists of Dissent, Aesthetics of Hate, Beautiful Mourning just to name a few...
@GohanMH1 Are you for real. Their new work is fucking crushing.
My fav. song for the longest time.
14 year listening to this song. sthill the same feeling \m/
Back when MH were all about aggressive expression, not the boring power metal they have come to be nowadays... :(
@ImplementDestruction Jesus, what a bed wetter.LOL
Where is desire to fire? :c
power!!!
@Haddockxyz300 I do, hence my comment.
@TheFingerbang1
Who gives a shit about lyrics?
I've not heard this song for years. The lyrics suck quite a lot.
this is the best Machine Head song ever!
those guitar solos are fu*king amazing
Great song...one of machine heads finest.....
One of Machine Head's best songs i reckon, i wonder why its so unpopular on youtube....
