Big Machine Lyrics by Ryan Miller

Safety Not Guaranteed (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

2012

[Verse 1]
Stand straight, fall back in line
Comb your hair, get to work on time
Everyone in the big machine
Tries to break your heart, pull you underneath

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'm wrong and all that you get is what you see
But maybe I'm right and there's something out there to believe

[Chorus]
Everybody's talking in their sleep
They push a lot of air around but don't say much of anything
Except when they're laughin' like some ghosts under a sheet
Everybody's talking in their sleep

[Verse 2]
Watch out, get back in line
They trip you up, it happens every time
Weighed down, it's just a big machine
That could break apart like anything

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'm wrong and all that you get is what you see
But maybe I'm right and there's something out there to believe

[Chorus]
Everybody's talking in their sleep
They push a lot of air around but don't say much of anything
Except when they're laughin' like some ghosts under a sheet
Everybody's talking in their sleep

[Outro]
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
Na na na hey, na na na hey
