The Machine
[Verse 1]
Last night in my bed I had a dream
We got fed to a machine
Could have sworn it was for real like I saw it on a screen
Like I almost heard the screams
Keep on calling out for mercy
Getting slaughtered in their teens
The Machine runs on oil and ambition
A sense of duty in the [? 1:16] traditions
It runs on blood and the usual business
It runs on pride and on fools making wishes
Eagles were liberal
Worldviews worked
To convince you of a virtue
Of fulfilling their purpose
Pushing people over the edge and celebrate
That they're the last ones to fall into the firmness
[Chorus]
You're rising for a fall
Working hard, achieving nothin' at all
Put your head up in the clouds
And feel you're never coming down
The Machine eventually will get us all
Last night in my bed I had a dream
We got fed to a machine
Could have sworn it was for real like I saw it on a screen
Like I almost heard the screams
Keep on calling out for mercy
Getting slaughtered in their teens
The Machine runs on oil and ambition
A sense of duty in the [? 1:16] traditions
It runs on blood and the usual business
It runs on pride and on fools making wishes
Eagles were liberal
Worldviews worked
To convince you of a virtue
Of fulfilling their purpose
Pushing people over the edge and celebrate
That they're the last ones to fall into the firmness
[Chorus]
You're rising for a fall
Working hard, achieving nothin' at all
Put your head up in the clouds
And feel you're never coming down
The Machine eventually will get us all
