Letra de Machines
I found wings in my attic
One more superpower I've outgrown
My brother has basketball practice
One more superpower I've outgrown
My brother has basketball practice
I'm going to hit on the coach
I saw Jesus Christ in a bookstore
He looked burdened with all that belief
He cut me in line without remorse
Said we're all powering the same machine
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost
Oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months
Oh-oh, but I was a machine once
I got drunk for the first time
Or as drunk as my brain would permit
I swayed beside a stuffed lion
And briefly loved the scientist
I think I saw God in the bathroom
Some pretty girl was holding her hair back
And I offered her fistfuls of tissues
She bit back tears and told me not to do that
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost
Oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months
Oh-oh, but I was a machine once
I saw this boy in a nightmare
After I passed him on campus
You know, the one I'm still scared of
Even though nothing happened
I shudder at what might have happened
Growing up is bad dreams put in practice
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost, oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months, oh, but I was a machine once
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
I saw Jesus Christ in a bookstore
He looked burdened with all that belief
He cut me in line without remorse
Said we're all powering the same machine
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost
Oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months
Oh-oh, but I was a machine once
I got drunk for the first time
Or as drunk as my brain would permit
I swayed beside a stuffed lion
And briefly loved the scientist
I think I saw God in the bathroom
Some pretty girl was holding her hair back
And I offered her fistfuls of tissues
She bit back tears and told me not to do that
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost
Oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months
Oh-oh, but I was a machine once
I saw this boy in a nightmare
After I passed him on campus
You know, the one I'm still scared of
Even though nothing happened
I shudder at what might have happened
Growing up is bad dreams put in practice
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh, grew up and learned the cost, oh-ooh, I can't sleep this one off
Now I know that I bleed months, oh, but I was a machine once
Oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
