Ballad of the Walking Machines

Haha

Just around the bend, try to comprehend
These walking machines are not pretend
Far from all repair, can you be prepared?
Don't make it obvious, you're scared
Lock up all the doors, hide until the morn'
There's no way out, there's no way out
So don't you even try to run away now
Waiting out the clock, got no time to live
Why'd you pick up a nighttime shift?
Every moment, danger, every moment, fear
They already know that you are here
So lock up all the doors, hide until the morn'
There's no way out, there's no way out
So don't you even try to run away now

So put your sanity in your pocket
Not gonna need it when they come knockin'
Forget about your imagination
And pray to God for your salvation
You're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do
If you're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do

I'm no machine, why would I lie?
Sometimes a dream is a nightmare disguised
No more time to rehearse
So I'll grind through my verse
When I died, system fried
Don't know why I still work
And the crime wasn't solved
Purple guys, unabsolved
Tryna tie up the theories
Outlined on your walls
All the sins remain with the pain inside
They reskinned my face, but the paint won't dry
Who said this place was made of magic? 'Cause I call it a casket
And in my case it's open, but they're hoping they can mask it
An attraction, that's all I am to anyone
Guess you only learn what you're worth when you're gone
Nothing left to do, I guess I'll sing the songs that they want
Our collective conscience twisted up
As long as I've got you in my heart
I'll know I'm not alone, baby
It's a comfort knowing we're both going crazy

So put your sanity in your pocket
Not gonna need it when they come knockin'
Forget about your imagination
And pray to God for your salvation
You're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do
If you're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do

I'm crazy, I'm crazy
I'm crazy, I'm going crazy
I'm crazy, I'm crazy
I'm crazy

Just around the bend, try to comprehend
These walking machines are not pretend
Far from all repair, can you be prepared?
Look right over there

So put your sanity in your pocket
Not gonna need it when they come knockin'
Forget about your imagination
And pray to God for your salvation
If you're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do
If you're alive right now, survive right now
That's all you can do

I'm crazy, I'm crazy
I'm crazy, I'm going crazy
I'm crazy, I'm crazy
I'm crazy
