Bloodshot Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Kingofstilport 

Cover art for Bloodshot lyrics by Machine Head

This one is the moment of raw anger and confrontation, which is helped by the heavy vocals and relentless aggression from Robb Flynn. It's the deadly confrontation of Eros' death cult and Ares' justice seekers. The name "Bloodshot" refers to their burning red eyes, full of tears of vengeance and forever blinded by revenge, blinded from guilt. The lyrics of their "Arteries bursting with hatred and capillaries sickened by blood" describe it best. This song is also the middle point of the collapse, between "No Gods, No Masters" and "Rotten."
