The Emptiness Machine

[Verse 1]

Your blades are sharpened with precision

Flashing your favorite point of view

I know you're waiting in the distance

Just like you always do, just like you always do

[Pre-Chorus]

Already pulling me in

Already under my skin

And I know exactly how this ends, I

[Chorus]

Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed

Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be

Don't know why I'm hopin' for what I won't receive

Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine

The emptiness machine

[Verse 2]

Goin' around like a revolver

It's been decided how we lose

'Cause there's a fire under the altar

I keep on lyin' to, I keep on lyin' to

[Pre-Chorus]

Already pulling me in

Already under my skin

And I know exactly how this ends, I

[Chorus]

Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed

Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be

Don't know why I'm hopin' for what I won't receive

Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine

[Breakdown]

I only wanted to be part of something

I only wanted to be part of, part of

I only wanted to be part of something

I only wanted to be part of, part of

I only wanted to be part of something

I only wanted to be part

[Chorus]

I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed

Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be

Don't know why I'm hopin', so fuckin' naive

Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine

The emptiness machine

[Outro]

The emptiness machine, oh

The emptiness machine
