Self-Destruction Is the Only Way to Find Inner Peace

If you really wanted to feel better
You would make yourself totally aware
You wouldn't work on finding alternate pathways
From everyone who might care

If you really wanted to feel better
You'd look for some other release
But self-destruction seems to be
The only way to find inner peace

And if you know what's good for you
Let yourself drown
The ship is sinking
Go on, sink down

Everything I do to fix things
Makes me feel so empty
Everything I do to fix things
Makes me feel so empty
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself

If anybody really liked you
You wouldn't constantly feel so drowned
If anybody really liked you
They would ask you to stick around

They don't
They don't
'Cause no one cares about you
They don't
They don't
You fucking worthless machine

And everything I do to fix things
Makes me feel so empty
Everything I do to fix things
Makes me feel so empty
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself

That thing that you said when I was falling asleep
It runs through my head while I stare at the knife
Something about how I mattered so much
But I'm a tertiary character in my life

They've got other people and goals to pursue
They got their love and their stones to be hurled
If given the choice, they would never pick you
You're a tertiary character in all their worlds

I always fuck up
I fuck everything up
But it's not about you, I swear
The things that I say
My flowing windpipe
It just means nothing if you're not there

And everything I do to fix things (nothing)
Makes me feel so empty
Everything I do to fix things (nothing)
Makes me feel so empty (you don't do anything)
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself (you never do anything)
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself (you worthless piece of machinery)
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself (worthless)
I am a machine that is built to destroy itself (worthless)

Don't drift away, I love you
Don't drift away, I love you
Maybe I am a worthless machine
Maybe my eyes will never be bright
Maybe I am a worthless machine
Maybe I should give up the search for light
