lyrics

If it's fast and loud
Will your heart pump blood like you've never taken a breath?
If its faster and louder
Will the head rush throw you like an arrow into the pit?
If blood and murder, death and fire are words to heal the soul
Why do I feel like its all been done before?

Well the stacks are pushing air
The head banging boys are swinging their hair
I'm still in my seat
The bands' on fire but I just wanna leave
Going through the motions
When you can't tap into the flow
Here I am
Falling asleep at the metal show

If the singer screams
Will you move your body and shake your vocal chords?
If he hands you the mic will you roar those lyrics
Until you can't anymore?
If you know the words and you know the rhythms and the notes that make you feel
Why can't I get up and mosh for the real deal?

Well the stacks are pushing air
The head banging boys are swinging their hair
I'm still in my seat
The bands' on fire but I just wanna leave
Going through the motions
When you can't tap into the flow
Here I am
Falling asleep at the metal show

So they'll be choking the river with their dead
And playing with the ace of spades
I'm trying so hard not to close my eyes
And slip on a pair of shades

Well the stacks are pushing air
The head banging boys are swinging their hair
I'm still in my seat
The bands' on fire but I just wanna leave
Going through the motions
When you can't tap into the flow
Here I am
Falling asleep
Here I am
Falling asleep
Here I am
Falling asleep at the metal show
