Machines

I sit up in my room at night

Hold on to my pillow tight

My dreams will be uninvited by something I don't know

I hear these words in my mind

I don't know who put them there, but they sure ain't mine

Who's inside everyone's brain?

Cause recently everybody's been acting all the same

But now I know

Who writes the songs?

The machines do

Who rights the wrongs?

The machines do

Who plants the bombs?

The machines do

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

How did they get inside my head?

Making me feel so cold and dead

Your thoughts being captured as well

I'm locked in a trance, I'm under the spell

A feel that has moved over me

They're squeezing me tight,

There's never gonna let me breathe

They take my heart and they rip it up

Change it for a broken watch, and now my time is running out

But now I know

Who writes the songs?

The machines do

Who rights the wrongs?

The machines do

Who plants the bombs?

The machines do

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I can feel the tic-tock when I turn my head

I can feel the tic-tock when I lie in bed

I can feel the tic-tock dancing in my brain

I can feel the tic-tock running through my brain

Oh when the tic-tock stops, yeah my body rocks

I close my eyes, I get electric shocks

I feel the metal there in my skin

They're gonna win

I am, I am, I am

I am a machine

I am, I am, I am

I am a machine

You're one of me, I'm one of them

Say goodbye to the world, we're never gonna be the same again

But now I know

Who writes the songs?

The machines do

Who rights the wrongs?

The machines do

Who plants the bombs?

The machines do

Who rights the wrongs?

The machines do

Who plants the bombs?

The machines do

Who rights the wrongs?

The machines do

Who plants the bombs?

The machines do

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
