Machine Head - Now I Lay Thee Down Lyrics
[Music: Flynn / Demmel, Lyrics: Flynn]
I want to know
How it feels
When we die
[Chorus:]
Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
She watched me leave
Me bleeding
On the floor
[Chorus]
Godless mimicry
White lights cemetery
Flashes of the angel's ivory wings
Images so many broke dreams
Of pain
Terror
Fear
Crippling
Follow the light into the tunnel
Or will it end up in a black hole?
Follow the light into the tunnel,
Dead in its end
What is love?
What is murder?
Within the eye of the beholder
[Solo: Demmel, Flynn, Demmel, Flynn]
What have I done?
I've gone and killed the only one I love
How could I do this?
I'm screaming at God
Why do you curse me?
Fuck it, load it, sever the day
[Chorus]
Now I lay thee down,
Underground

Machine Head Now I Lay Thee Down Comments
I bet you 35 douchebag's didn't hear the song through.
Hand's down, 'IMO' this lands in my top 50 of all time. Probably top 20! It's fucking perfect!
Fucking awesome
Was supposed to see these guys and the day of the show I broke my damn shoulder
shame what this band has come down to, fuck you rob you pathetic piece of shit
Those ending guitar screeches get me so fired up every time.
Who else thought it was Dream No More
It's love pain and death
It's Tragedy
Powerful and emotional. What a song should be.
this is the song i have been looking for... fuuuuuuucking hell
NOTHING ROMANTIC HERE...I DON'T KNOW MACHINE HEAD ROMANTIC SONGS
MAYBE DESCEND THE SHADES OF NIGHT....BUT NOT IN THE ROMANTIC WAY YOU REFER
00:00 MUSSORGSKY-BABA YAGA,COME AL SOLITO
This song is so WOW!!!
I love this song. This is like the perfect song when your mad at someone to listen to
Goosebumps everytime! This song touches my soul...
Thankyou :)
Was it love... Was it murder?
Within the eye of the beholder
Fuck yes. Havent heard this in years
When you listen to this, make sure the volume is up loud as fuck and headbang your damn neck off
Dat guitar at 2:30
John Doe hhjjj
why did they have to fall out with the other greatest metal band? whyy????
ket amine who?
it still makes me day dreamer... lol
το τραγουδι σπερνει!!!MH rules
Most underrated track on the album.
This and Beautiful Mourning.
Not underrated at all, this is one of their most popular songs.
Can you suggest any other songs that sound like this one please?
Beautiful Mourning by the same band sounds fairly similar.
All that you are by Mudvayne
Purity by Slipknot
IMN by Mudvayne
The Red by Chevelle.
This is my favorite machine head song from the very first years i knew em.
Still to this day has a huge meaning to it.
My hart aches for her still to this day
Forever and eternity I love you
you cant compare korn to these guys lol
Listen to Supercharger and then come back and tell me the same thing.
Horror and Halloween 101 Lmao, truth
Horror and Halloween 101 Supercharger is shit, and so is Korn
Korn has a different sound then Machine Head and both bands are pretty fucking sweet to listen too
You cant compare quality in music as it's completely subjective. But you can say that korn is a more popular and influential band
damn that song is badass
one of my fav MH songs
The fucking bass is so good in this. Just top shelf song ever imo.
This song sounds /so/ damn good.
Such a haunting vibe in this song yet it is amazing! Every new machine head song I come across, I am just blown away. One of my favourite bands for sure. One of the best musical artists in an unfortunately decaying music industry.
ρε τον παπάρα τι εγραψε....ωραιος..
Χαχαχαχαχαχαχα το ευλογησες
Great song. I love Machine Head.
So romantic indeed!
Machine Head harika dostum !!!
FUCKING DEEP!!
One knows a song is good when it can completely alter one's mood. I'm neutral and all of a sudden... PISSED!!! These guys always get me with their songs. Some sort of strong emotion I can't help but feel and I can't just lash out for nothing. Holy f*ck these guys are good.
+DeathclawAlphaMale maybe u should see a doctor.
Hassan yeah, the heavy metal doctor 🤘
Hassan Alnajjar - A65AP You should see a doctor because you are emotionless!
Shame they split up
@Kan No, seriously, the song is good but we are truly concerned about your health
awesome!
Everytime without fail, this song gives me chills!
Phil Demmel intro and Dave McClain blindside hit makes my eyes black over and want to shoot a double and lay thee down lol
this is the song that got me into this amazing album
\m/ ... dreeammmm no moreee!!!!!
Such a beautiful song.
most romantic song? i woulda gone 4 "fucked with a knife" or "Entrails ripped from a virgins cunt" but thats just me xD
or that xD
Steven King anal electrocution
this song is fucking awesome machine head for life
one of the only songs that isn't a letdown in the end
Piece of me* ;)
I perfectly can remember a little pice of my when I was Young listening to this awesome band, thanks!
I fucking love the Solo at 3:43... Always my whole Body shivers oO
Damn straight!

gotta love someone who can feel the romance in things so dark.... love is where you find it!
