Is There Anybody out There? - Machine Head

Is there anybody out there?

Is there anybody out there?

Is there anybody out there?

Is there anybody out there?

Come on

Come on

Come on

Is there anybody there?

Come on

Here’s a little something

I was born as a bastard, no father, no master

A shadow in silence left searching for answers

Put up for adoption and left with no option

Another kid fostered to fester, forgotten

Take a look into these desperate eyes

As they’re cast into the wretched hive

But I ain’t going down alone

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody listening to me?

Is anybody else scared?

The paranoia drops me to my knees

Does anybody feel lonely?

Disconnected from the things I see

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody out there just like me?

I’m choking on these words and I can’t breathe

Come on

Come on

Come on

Is there anybody there?

Come on

Come on

Lemme say this

Now I stand as a father, to men with no honor

Ashamed of the racists I used to call brothers

'Cause no flag can mean bravery

When bloodied by slavery

The rebel, a devil, disguised as a savior

And the sickening feeling in the air

Is the fear to speak that no one dares

So will I stand here all alone?

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody listening to me?

Is anybody else scared?

The paranoia drops me to my knees

Does anybody feel lonely?

Disconnected from the things I see

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody out there just like me?

I’m choking on these words and I can’t breathe

Live my life like I’ll die tonight

Dream like I’ll live forever

Live my life like I’ll die tonight

Dream like I’ll live forever

(Is there anybody out there?)

I have roared at the world for years

(Is there anybody out there?)

Doesn’t anybody hear me?

(Is there anybody out there?)

This burden suffered, I’ve paid the cost

(Is there anybody out there?)

Not all who wander are lost

Is there anybody

Is there anybody

Is there anybody

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody listening to me?

Is anybody else scared?

The paranoia drops me to my knees

Does anybody feel lonely?

Disconnected from the things I see

Is there anybody out there?

Anybody out there just like me?

I’m choking on these words and I can’t breathe

Come on

Come on

Come on

Is there anybody there?

Come on

Come on

Is there anybody

Is there anybody

Is there anybody out there?
