The Machine Lyrics by Mary Lambert

Letters Don’t Talk EP

2012

Don't touch me I'm sleeping
Got a bag of bones I've been keeping
Why you, why you sick?
Your hands are like a war memorial
Your hands are like a war memorial
Why are you sick?
We shaved your head cause your hair was falling out
We shaved your head cause your hair was falling out
Why are you sick all the time?
The sounds of the machine are the most comforting thing
Knowing your alive

Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep
Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep

Lord, lord
You took my baby, my baby
Got an empty house with two bathtubs I want to drown in them
Lord, lord you took my baby
Got an empty house with two bathtubs I want to drown in them
