Lyrics

Bad Machine

I fell by the wayside
I fell in the gutter
Lost all of my money
And I lost my lover
I met a stranger
Who bet double or nothing
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be something

I'll never say sorry
'Cause I'll never be free
You float like a butterfly
You sting like a bee
You're everywhere I go
You're always watchin' me
Get the hell out of my head
Get the hell out of my head

You cracked your whip
You sucked your thumb
You blew me a kiss
And the jig was up
I broke both my ankles
On the way down
It was a long way down
Such a long way down

I'll never say sorry
'Cause I'll never be free
You float like a butterfly
You sting like a bee
You're everywhere I go
You're always watchin' me
Get the hell out of my head
Get the hell out of my head

Get the hell out of my head

I'll never say sorry
'Cause I'll never be free
You float like a butterfly
You sting like a bee
You're everywhere I go
You're always watchin' me
Get the hell out of my head
Get the hell out of my head

I'll never say sorry
'Cause I'll never be free
You float like a butterfly
You sting like a bee
You're everywhere I go
You're always watchin' me
Get the hell out of my head
Get the hell out of my head

And I'm just a puppet
Who's drunk on his dreams
I'll never say sorry
I'll never be free
And I'm through being sober
'Cause what's in it for me?
I'll never say sorry
I'll never be free
