Machine Head - MY HANDS ARE EMPTY

Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho

Misery, cover me in waves
The heartache is slowly
Withering, I become her slave
Succumb to the darkness
Suffocating like I'm drowning in sand
Depression's got me by her cold dead hands
Treachery, the choices you made
Cut my heart open with this golden blade

Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) lies so petty
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) kill me gently

Medicate, I watched you slowly die
The powders and pills
Disintegrate, you right before my eyes
The emptiness haunts me
Glass reflections of a cold dead stare
Ingesting chemicals of death with no care
Memories, they haunt me they stain
Of what you once meant to me before this pain

Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) lies so petty
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) kill me gently

I, I will not hide these scars of mine
And take away the shame
I, I will not be what's left behind
Find someone else to blame
Forgiveness, constricted
No longer human
A ghost in time

I, I will not hide these scars of mine
And take away the shame
I, I will not be what's left behind
Find someone else to blame
Forgiveness, constricted
No longer human
A ghost in time

Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) lies so petty
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) kill me gently

Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) lies so petty
Ho, ho-ho
Ho-hou-ho-hou-ho, ho-ho
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) my hands are empty
(Ho, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho) kill me gently
