Blistering Lyrics

You stabbed me in the back over a sliver
A feeling I have been betrayed
Both hands broken together
Clenching fists cause the rage

It comes in spades
From a life of pain
I don't care 'cause I don't give a fuck
It tears a path right through me

A systematic vision of survival
A struggle I alone engage
Tension burning inside me
Blood so sweet cause revenge

It comes in spades
From a life of pain
I don't care 'cause I don't give a fuck
It tears a path right through me

Revenge is mine
Suffering divine
Fractures break through bone
Frustration won't let go

Filled with lead and
dumped into the river
And buried in a shallow grave
Both hands broken together
Clenching fists cause the rage

It comes in spades
From a life of pain
I don't care 'cause I don't give a fuck
It tears a path right through me

Cover art for Blistering lyrics by Machine Head

To me, this song is on betrayal, revenge, and the internal struggle for survival, and being determined to overcome adversity, even if it means resorting to revenge. When you get betrayed by someone for petty things, and all the sorrow and pain it brings you builds up inside and comes to a boil, it's time to fight back. Stay resilient, fight back, and get revenge.
