We'll take our virtues up in arms To save ourselves Tonight I'll fight and friends will stand here And die with us Halo, you mean nothing to me Angel, you mean nothing to me If I am the message Then you are the machine If I am the message Then you are the machine We'll wear our scars above our arms And covered up Should we keep this open ending Just for us Halo, you mean nothing to me Angel, you mean nothing to me If I am the message Then you are the machine If I am the message Then you are the machine Just take a look at yourself You see reflections in all of your impurities The taste, the taste of a burnt tongue If I am the message Then you are the machine If I am the message Then you are the machine You mean nothing to me You mean nothing to me
