There's a spectre looming over me A machine that feeds me nightmares and runs on plutonium And no matter what I told myself That those visions weren't real, get a hold of yourself Its pipes remain attached to me Relaying catastrophe but when my spirit atrophied Its mission done, the spectre vanished back to thee Look back to me, getting up three hours after that ordeal My memory already fading but the sickness sticks, remaining, Fragmenting images of what I witnessed Was I imagining a system, apathy A machine for ruining the best of times with twisted dreams, Actually Suspicious of my ecstasy Obsessions with the slightest things The sickness sings Inside my gut the sickness stings And to the person who informed me I complain to much If I say I'm done after this track is that enough Or will you keep sustaining silence gone five months Will you keep the walls built up Do you think I give a f*ck Friends like you are dime a dozen So there's at least a hundred-twenty at this wallet killing Gin swilling club And at least sixty of them look at me with friendly love What we had was a connection I could form with anyone It's just that you were there, yea I guess we had some fun But back to me I'm staring at the ceiling with some girl lying next to me Ante Meridiem it's three, I try to disappear beneath the sheets But I'm paralyzed and it catches me That ratchety sound as it hatches dreams And there's that sickly, hellish chattering And then the mental battery The girl wakes up and then wakes me Are you all right, are you okay I say it's fine, it's just a dream Then we go back to sleep I won't tell her of the things I've seen The scenes of endless failure I won't expose my insecurities when there's no need I'm just taking my remission with a grain of salt and, hopefully Nothing will happen to me But is that healthy Am I abused by this machine Does it return sufficiently And would admitting this help me When social I think tactically So, if I say I'm sick, will my friends get sick of me Suspicious of my ecstasy Remission into OCD Familiarly my stomach sinks Then there's my own mind machine The one that can't help but think I feel myself try to sink, But I'm too light to just disappear into a dream And so it seems My only path is one of drink But back to me By which I mean I'm staring at the mirror, And he's standing with his back to me, The kind of thing that I imagine that I see Cos it's now 3AM, and it's been months that I can't sleep Is it the pounding in my heart, or the terror in my dreams That keeps me lying here imagining a system or a scheme Imagining that there is a machine to keep me suffering Unsure if there's an out for what I've been Cos there's a spectre looming over me Less mechanical than fluid, but still a machine And until I learn to break myself from this self prophesising thing I'll be trapped and made to scream Without a mouth to make it mean Just another weary cog in my nightmare machine Goodnight then machine As I dare to dream Of words I can sing
