PERFECT MACHINE Songtext

PERFECT MACHINE Songtext
Show me your insides
Show me your secrets
Show me what you desire
I can fake it
Show what you wanted
So I can be it
And if I bend just right
I can make it
I didn′t want you
I wanna watch you change
From a butterfly and into chains
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will show you what you wanted to see
Just a mirror 'til I get what I need
The reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
I′m just a liar
Without deceiving
I'm just a broken clown
Make believing
I should've let you know
You should′ve ran for cover
I′m just a parlor trick
A two-bit counterfeit
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will use it to protect you from me
I will never let you see what's beneath
So good for you and good for me
We told ourselves we′re right where we ought to be
Even you know
Even you know
This was all for nothing
Just a sad show
Just an ego
I suppose though
As far as I know
We were both pretending
I suppose so
But what do I know?
Even you know
Even you know
This was all for nothing
Just a sad show
Just an ego
I suppose though
As far as I know
We were both pretending
I suppose so
But what do I know?
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will show you what you wanted to see
Just a mirror 'til I get what I need
The reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will use it to protect you from me
I will never let you see what′s beneath
So good for you and good for me
We told ourselves we're where right we ought to be
"Unity
Through allegiance
A strong party
Brings happiness to the people
Hard work makes a powerful nation
Contraband thought will result in audit and subjugation"
