Silent Machine Songtext
von Cat Power

Walk off to the woods and the streets every night
Walk to the people who walk too close
Into each other they′re hanging
I am told as a mother you may remember her

In the name of the father but never the ghost
Me I used the money for those just as hard
Who hung his head for the ladies all pretended he dead

He dead
She dead
He dead
We dead

She loves you, she loves you, she loves you so hard
The wonder the person to have you cannot
Charley is a sinner, tell me teacher
To put on your light and then turn around

The silent machine is eating me child
You put on your light and then turn around
You lie you lie you lie you lie


Turn around
Turn around
Turn around
You turn around
You turn around
You turn around

The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating

If there ever was a religious figure
In my age it don't count to have buttercup eyes
But you know someone...

The silent machine is eating me child
You put on your light and then turn around
You lie you lie you lie you lie

She loves you, she loves you, she loves you so hard
The wonder the person to have you cannot
Charley is a sinner, tell me teacher
To put on your light and then turn around

The silent machine is eating me child
You put on your light and then turn around
You lie you lie you lie you lie


The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating me child
The silent machine is eating
