Lyrics
Machine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can the violence in your eyes guess the secrets on my lips?
Can we light the world on fire inside of each and every kiss?
Lay down your head full of reasons
They're just excuses for leaving
So take me on the down slide
'Cause there's no way I'm walking out
It's not broken, just impossible to see
I'm not giving up; we are the ghost in the machine
Have you ever seen the lies? They're the bolts that keep us in
Have you given yourself the time to know what this could have been?
Falling through moments in motion
This machine is not void of devotion
So take me on the down slide
'Cause there's no way I'm walking out
It's not broken, just impossible to see
I'm not giving up; we are the ghost in the machine
I'm not hoping for someone to set me free
Breaking through the rust, we are the ghost in the machine
Draining all the poison, in me, fighting the devotion, you see
Draining all the poison, in me, fighting the devotion, you see
So take me on the down slide
'Cause there's no way I'm walking out
So take me on the down slide
'Cause there's no way I'm walking out
It's not broken, just impossible to see
I'm not giving up; we are the ghost in the machine
I'm not hoping for someone to set me free
Breaking through the rust, we are the ghost in the machine
