Heavy Metal Machine (version 1) Lyrics - Smashing Pumpkins

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 n' roll 

Let me die to save my soul 

Let me die let me die 

Rock n' roll 

Let the world forgive the past 

Let all the girls kiss the boys at last 

Let me go let me go 

Rock n' roll 

Heavy metal 

Heavy metal machine 

Heavy metal 

A heavy metal machine 

We're the 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 well 

Heavy metal 

Heavy metal machine 

It's elemental 

To all the rust it brings 

Heavy metal 

Heavy metal machine 

Let me die for rock n' roll 

Let me die and save my soul 

Let me go let me go 

Rock n' roll 

Let the world forgive the past 

Let all the girls kiss the boys at last 

Let me go let me go 

Rock n' roll 

Heavy metal 

Heavy metal machine 

Heavy metal 

A heavy metal machine 

We're the metal 

In their droning schemes 

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
