Machine Songtext
von Rob Thomas

Now here we go, this is who we are
On a dead-end road, in a stolen car

Burnin′ daylight, bathed in starlight
Scared of all the in between
Startin' fires, chasin′ monsters
Runnin' from the things I've seen

So start me up, I′m gainin′ steam
I'm on a roll, let it go, you should believe
I′m screamin' light, I guarantee
I′m in control, I'm a machine, I′m a machine

(Machine)
(Machine)
(I'm a machine)
(Machine)
(Machine)
(Machine)

I keep my fire to the fuse, so I'm never scared of burnin′ out
I keep on breakin′ loose until I'm breakin′ down


Can you hear me? Are you near me?
Does it phase you? Do you fear me?
Do you need me? Can you feed me?
I'm burnin′ everything around me

So start me up, I'm gainin′ steam
I'm on a roll, let it go, you should believe
I'm screamin′ light, I guarantee
I′m in control, I'm a machine, I′m a machine

(Machine)
(Machine)
(I'm a machine)
(Machine)
(Machine)

Sometimes I think I′m holdin' it back
I said, sometimes I think I′m holdin' it back (ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I steady keep it all on track
From the start to the time I react

So start me up, I'm gainin′ steam
I′m on a roll, let it go, you should believe
I'm screamin′ light, I guarantee
I'm in control, I′m a machine, I'm a machine


(Machine)
(Machine)
(Machine)
(Machine)
