Rogue 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.
I broke a promise to myself
And took my heart down off the shelf
And hey, what a very, very fine day
What's the point in a kevlar vest
You put a hole into my chest
And oh, I know, two weeks are impossible
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
Chase a rabbit in the ground
And wait for hours, no sight or sound
And oh, my soul, looking for an inch of hope
I stretch it lengthwise across the road
From Montreal to Mexico
And wait for hours, no sight or sound
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
We are intersecting lines
We crash in flight
Like a rogue machine
You are ultraviolet light
It burns my eyes
And it's all I see
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Let yourself go
Let yourself go
