Sorrow Machine
I brought fire to burn it all down
Pay what you want
Step right up, better gather round
Sky full of flames that smother the town
I want to keep you around
I want to keep you down
Cries from the audience swell
Gotta give what they want, peel your skin, never undersell
I got the hang of self destruction, forgive my last farewell
I came to bleed for your seduction, wish me well
Providing a shoulder for you to lean on when I bring you my pain
Denying you closure, dwelling in all the problems I create
Became the sorrow machine you know
I'm running from something and you can't escape it
You think you're falling for me
I know you're falling for something cause no one is safe yet
I'm resenting who I've become
I spill out on the streets, gasoline from my petty tongue
And my heart is a book of matches, probably best you run
I'll bring what's left from the smoke and ashes for everyone
Heard you calling, I've come back to let you down
The king of sorrow has returned to make you proud
And though I yearn for your validation
I was so desperate to let it out
Now that you all have learned a lesson, let's burn it down
Pay what you want
Step right up, better gather round
Sky full of flames that smother the town
I want to keep you around
I want to keep you down
Cries from the audience swell
Gotta give what they want, peel your skin, never undersell
I got the hang of self destruction, forgive my last farewell
I came to bleed for your seduction, wish me well
Providing a shoulder for you to lean on when I bring you my pain
Denying you closure, dwelling in all the problems I create
Became the sorrow machine you know
I'm running from something and you can't escape it
You think you're falling for me
I know you're falling for something cause no one is safe yet
I'm resenting who I've become
I spill out on the streets, gasoline from my petty tongue
And my heart is a book of matches, probably best you run
I'll bring what's left from the smoke and ashes for everyone
Heard you calling, I've come back to let you down
The king of sorrow has returned to make you proud
And though I yearn for your validation
I was so desperate to let it out
Now that you all have learned a lesson, let's burn it down
