The Emptiness Machine

Your blades are sharpened with precision Flashing your favorite point of view I know you're waiting in the distance Just like you always do, just like you always do Already pulling me in, already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends I let you cut me open, just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine Going around like a revolver It's been decided how we lose 'Cause there's a fire under the altar I keep on lying to, I keep on lying to Already pulling me in, already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part I let you cut me open, just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping, so fucking naive Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine (I only wanted to be part of something) The emptiness machine (I only wanted to be part of) The emptiness machine
