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 tel
  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
