Cleaning The Machine

Winterlong


I turn my eyes away 
From the TV screen 
Just for a little while 
From those silent screams 
They're haunting me 
Haunting me 

Let us watch the war machine 
And feed it with our infants 
Maybe this time around we'll 
Set them free 

I'm made of metal 
Cleaning the machine 
I'm made of steel 
The meanest of the mean 
I am perpetual 
The baddest ever seen 
I am forever 
I'm cleaning your machine 

I still smell that smell 
O god it's just like pure hell 
Resembles great evil 
But than again, that's your name 
They're haunting me 
Haunting me 

Let us watch the war machine 
And feed it with our infants 
Maybe this time around we'll 
Set them free, leave them be 

I'm made of metal 
Cleaning the machine 
I'm made of steel 
The meanest of the mean 
I am perpetual 
The baddest ever seen 
I am forever 
I'm cleaning your machine 
I am a machine
