Noise Machines Songtext
von The City on Film

I wish I knew how this all worked
Wish I knew how I worked
Wish I had some better news to tell
I must inform you that the board
We jetted to the shore
And tallied up the scores
And it′s not well

Oh yeah, pray tell
What it the whispering we constantly were hearing behind
Expensive noise machines?
And where are they now?
Impressive dust collectors
See, I sought to use them better
Now they help soothe me to sleep
And block bad dreams


I wish there was some other way
To keep everybody coming
To keep the motor humming happily
But I have just received the word
From the bird you found so friendly
He has deemed you ultimately unnecessary

Oh yeah, how strange
We would have guessed there would be
Plenty for the rest
After chasing your untested messes
I got too invested
And too content
And now I wheel around the west end
Positively reeling and

Have I lost my best friend?
Will I ever see him again?
I have lost my best friend
He has been taken
Now I feel forever forsaken

And I wish I knew how this all worked
I wish I knew how this all worked.
