Machine Lyrics by TENDER

Modern Addiction

2017

[Verse 1]
Oh, always staring at your phone
There's nobody in there with a life worth living
Nobody in there that isn't wishing
They were just an empty shell without no substance
No purpose, another from the circus
Direction, connection, got another mention
What does it mean?
We're all machines

[Chorus]
Control, control me
Control, control me
You cut me open, and pull me apart
A hollow chest instead of a heart
Control, control me
Control, control me
You do what you want with me, baby
Till I am spent, I'm so content

[Verse 2]
I've been thinking how I got here
Waking up in a bed that wasn't mine
I had the strangest of dreams
Where everything was normal but it wasn't right
Men made of shadow with an awful grin
Planted the fear deep beneath my skin
I wear a face that isn't mine
Do what you please anytime

[Chorus]
Control, control me
Control, control me
You cut me open, and pull me apart
A hollow chest instead of a heart
Control, control me
Control, control me
You do what you want with me, baby
Till I am spent, I'm so content

[Chorus]
Control, control me
Control, control me
You cut me open, and pull me apart
A hollow chest instead of a heart
Control, control me
Control, control me
You do what you want with me, baby
Till I am spent, I'm so content
