The Machine Lyrics by Jason Lake

Adventure28

2020

If you want to hear a truth
Well here's a truth
I've been living a lie
I'm ruled by common sense
Have low confidence
And I'm telling you why
I'm not a cog in your machine
To keep you turning
I won't carry your load
I'm an outlaw
Loan wolf
Forever turning
And heading down my own road
So if you want to go to war
Then go to war
I'm sure that others will follow
But don't come knocking at my door
Cause you're not welcome anymore
You're not welcome anymore
More, more
I'm not a switch in your control
To keep you earning
I won't carry your load
I'm a dreamer
Lost soul
I'm still learning
Headed down my own road
Road, road, road
Why don't we put this all to bed
Before we all start seeing red
I just want to move on
If that's too hard for you to hear
Then I'll just disappear
And leave you with this song
I'm not a cog in your machine
To keep you turning
I won't carry your load
I'm an outlaw
Loan wolf
Forever turning
And heading down my own road
I'm not a switch in your control
To keep you earning
I won't carry your load
I'm a dreamer
Lost soul
I'm still learning
Headed down my own road
Road, road, road
