Hurt - Goodbye to the Machine Lyrics






Got Jealous

If I don't get outta here, I'm gonna kill someone
I've gotta single fear; I think someone will come
Just to put me away, into a cage
Where I never would see the sun

If you don't get out of here, I'm gonna kill someone
I think he's been in your room for way too damn long
I want him out of here before I kill someone
So he never could never see the sun

In a full moon night everything was goin fine
I was doin' me some lines until I gripped my knife
Then I wanted his eyes more than she wanted his eyes
So he never could see the sun

Then all I could see
Was someone other than me holding you (I think I got jealous, I think I got jealous)
Then you my love could be left to prove (I think I got jealous)
It's the worst thing I'd ever do
'Cause I knew his face before he ran away (I think I got jealous)

Another a full moon night, everything was goin' fine
I was doin' me some lines and then I took a little ride
And with a little reason I dragged me into believin'
I should finish what I'd begun

Now all I could see
Is someone else but me holding you (I think I got jealous, I think I got jealous)
When all I can see, all I could see
Was someone holding you, holding you (I think I got jealous)
its the worst thing that I could do (I think I got jealous)
'Cause I knew (I think I got jealous)
I knew (I think you got jealous)
That he's holding you (I think I got jealous)
It's the worst thing that you could do (I think I got jealous)
'Cause you knew (I think I got jealous)
You knew (I think I got jealous)

Will you let me know if you let me go, my love, my love
So will you let me know when you let me go my love, my love
Will you let me know when you let me go my love oh my love
How will you let me know when you let me go my love, my love

Hey you, you're everything to me
Oh you, you're everything to me
Yeah you, worth everything in me
Yeah you, you're everything to me
Yeah you, you're everything to me
Yeah you, mean everything to me
Oh will you let me know if you let me go, my love
You're everything to me

Pandora

Oh, you love to hear her moan
And when you come around
And hope that she is alone
'Cause the weather makes the sound

Its alright she says...
Come inside she says...
Come inside...

My love, call it skin beneath the moonlight
Was a vision of a better time
When you and I have different lives
Is something the matter?
No, she brought him to the finish line
Saying you will learn in due time
She shook and moaned and spread her thighs

Oh it's alright she said...
Come inside she said...
Come inside...

This is...
How hope is gone
This is...
How hope was lost
Now hope is gone

Well you know, that thing before that bothered me
The man who owns me rightfully
Has quite a hefty policy
Well accidents happen
So, with an implication in the air
I turned an bolted out of there
She followed and made me aware
I'll get what I want
If you don't, I'll tell you how my story goes
He broke into the window
With me in just like any clothes
You made me undress, then...

You came inside she said...
Get back inside she said...
Get back inside...

So this is...
How hope is gone
Now I know...
I know
How hope was lost

Wars

Show me a smile on your silly face
'Cause I'm getting tired of this human race,
My darling...

The eyes of a child as I went away,
And how many heroes have we killed today?
I can fly higher than an aeroplane
And I have the voice of a thousand hurricanes
My darling...

Men of destruction reap iniquity
When heroes of courage die with dignity
How many weapons did I help create?
How many lives will I devestate?
My darling...

I think of all the days in my life
Where I could have done something more
Yes I remember the days in my life
Where I could have done something more
There is never a day that goes by,
That's a good day to die
Just open your eyes to the millions of lives,
That will selflessly die in our wars

I think of all the days in my life
Where I could have done something more
Ya I remember the days in my life
Where I should have done something more
I think of all the days in my life
Where I could have done something more
Yes I remember the days in my life
Where I should have done something more
There was never a day that goes by
That's a good day to die
Please open your eyes, oh
There was never a day that went by
That's a good day to die
Won't you please close your eyes?
For the millions of lives...
Who have senselessly died in a war?

World Aint Right

(feat. Shaun Morgan of Seether)

[J. Loren]
The world it just ain't right.
It keeps me up at night.
A good man's paralyzed.
He's everything to me,
what else could he be?
He paid for all we do.
He paid for all we get.
Just try not to forget,
if it hasn't happened yet.

[Shaun Morgan]
A gambler pays his dues.
A gambler pays his debts,
placed upon a bet,
a brand new red Corvette,
but he just lost Juliet.
He paid for all he'd do.
He paid for all he'd get,
and how could I forget,
when it hasn't happened yet?

[Both]
Would you show me the meaning of love,
so it doesn't affect me much?
What you do unto us,
I never expected,
all my hopes and dreams,
to fall apart at the seams.
To fall apart at the seams.

[J. Loren]
The kindest man I knew,
the kindest man I've seen,
was tied to a machine,
yeah, tied to a machine,
the kind that makes you breathe.

[Both]
So could you show me the meaning of love,
'cause it doesn't affect me much?
What you do unto us,
I never expected,
all my hopes and dreams,
to fall apart at the seams.
To fall apart at the seams.

[J. Loren]
The world it just ain't right.
It keeps me up at night.
Try to be satisfied,
but I'm still in love with you,
but it's not like you want me to.

Sweet Delilah

Sweet Delilah, come inside
And won't you mend my broken bones
The more that I get tossed aside
The more I beg you not to go
I'm building up a wall
And I cant get over it
I slip into the falls again

I said oh, no, I know Ive been a fool
And I said whoa, no, I fell in love with you
And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool when I said

Sweet Delilah can't deny
That she was happy long ago
Twenty five and full of life
The more I begged her not to know
White paint up on the walls
Pretty pictures of the day
I slipped into the falls again

I said woah, no, I know Ive been a fool
And I said whoa, no, I fell in love with you
And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool when I said
Oh, yeah

And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool
And I said whoa, no, 'cause I fell in love with you
And I said whoa, no, well I know I've been a fool and I said

Oh, no, I know I've been a fool
And I said, Lord knows that I fell in love with you
I said oh, no, well I know I've been a fool and I said

1331

A sugar pop dropped down the delivery slot
'Cause he loaded it up
when I was there to buy some strings
Certain times like these
Mean everything to me

Tommy looked up at his novelty clock
He stopped and locked up the shop to play a piece
He turned and talked to me
'Till I would have to leave

He said "young boy you gotta let it fly
There's a song in your lung and a dream in your eye
Don't you beg for prayer when there's so much more
You can dream the whole damn store
There be many a night when you can't find food
From the long road home to the hotel room
But don't forget that I always believed in you"

Good on you boy
Good on me
Good on you

A cigarette shock to the marigold pot
As they wished me good luck
I shut the door and crossed the street
Every couple weeks
I would check in just to see
To dish up in the shock
With the telephone up
Put my cigarette, cough
And said "oh man it's good to hear from you"
And not believe
That Tommy had to leave

Hey there boy go ahead and fly
Say hello to your mom in the midnight sky
I won't forget that you always believed in me
'Cause many a night when I can't find food
Take a look at me now man I'm playing my tunes
I won't forget you
'Cause you were good to me

Good on you, boy
Hell, good on me
But good on you

Role Martyr X

To find the strength to carry on.
You put marks into your body;

You talk at length how you're alone,
And bitch at all the famous parties;

Such a vision of pure loneliness!
What an image you profess!
Don't'cha turn and walk away 'cuz,
You're getting me depressed.

In hopes you'd never be alone,
You bore your cross around your body;

It was in bad taste
Immolent and gaudy;

Boy, are you familiar?

You're a vision of the loneliness,
Add an image to the press:
Ya turn and walk away,
'Cuz you're happily depressed;
Inventing your own love loss,
You invent your own success;
I'm giving you a name boy,
You're poor Role Martyr-x;

You're a vision of our loneliness,
Like the one that predecessed;
Return in other ways,
Unlimited in lowliness,
You're a ringer for success,
I hope you find your pain boy,
Our poor Role Martyr-X:

Get your gun, get it?
Get your gun, get it!
Get your gun, get it?
Get your gun and get away from me!
Go!

One takes one, get it?
One makes one.
Is it one hates one,
Is it, one eats one to make a way for me;

You are just like me,
Just get away from me,
To make a way for me

So were the visions of your loneliness,
From an image on TV;
Don't turn and walk away,
Your depressed so happily,
Inventing your own love lost, envisioning success;
I hope you die of pain, our
Poor Role Martyr-X:

In a visionarial loneliness,
There's a pattern that repeats;
I really hate to say but,
There's a similarity;
Pontificating loves lost,
He bitches when he's blessed;
Your living is in vain boy,
(Our poor Role Martyr-X);

Since I am the most humble man in the world.

Well

I wasn't able to deal with the pain and the loss
And the darkness would surround me
What could've been? What should've been?
Pain

And with the state of affairs and the way that I was
I took a pistol from the closet
I loaded a round, I opened my mouth
Closed my eyes, said goodbye
Then 'click'

I would find
Another way

Now I was able to tell it was stupid as hell
And the guilt was overwhelming
Oh how could I do something to you
Like that which had been done to me

I'm guessing either I'm dead or I'm lucky instead
And the shame of this will haunt me
Then strange voices started making noises
Out of something boring
Then I made my choice to

Find
Another way
Yes, I would
Find
Another way, yeah

Cuz I can barely eat
And I can barely sleep
And I can barely think of anything but?

"Well, "Well"

Yeah, I can barely eat
And I can barely sleep
And I can barely think of anything but?

"Well, Well, Well"

Because the weight of the world was amusing to some
We would sign a record contract
And then you, her to me,
Said you got worse to me
And brought supplies when I was sick

Now I'm dirty, in doubt and I'm empty as hell
I knew better from the onset
Of a party in a limousine
With faces from a magazine
A stripper sitting next to me
Just begging me to let her go and

Find
Another way
Would you find
Another way, yeah

Cuz I can never eat
And I can never sleep
And I can never think of anything but?

"Well, Well"

Yeah, I can never eat
And I can barely breathe
And I can barely speak of anything but?

"Well, Well, Well"

Because no one
Ever
Really
Could love me
No one
Ever should

Yeah, no one
Ever
Really
Should love me
No one
Ever would

No one
Ever
Really
Could love me
No one
Ever would

Yeah, no one
Ever
Really
Should love me
No one
Ever would

Pills

She takes these pills,
And she moves along
She takes these pills,
And its better

It really doesn't matter to me
To live in your life and your own routine
A product from ecology it seems
She looks at him like he's a machine
And lives with him 'cause he's a bill machine
That brings it closer where she swears it needs

So she takes the pills
And she moves along
She takes the pills
And its better
He pays the bills
And he moves along
She takes the pills
And its better

It really doesn't matter to me
When you're living your life in your own medicated dream
How bad could sobriety really be?
I know you couldn't even recognize me
I wonder if she knows that her own family
Is waiting and praying in the hopes that she would leave

She nods her head as she moves along
She takes the pills and its better
She lies in bed 'till noons along
She takes these pills and its better
She takes these pills as she moves along
She takes these pills and its better
He nods his head and they move along
She takes these pills 'cause its better

Well it doesn't really matter to me
You know it really doesn't matter to me
It really doesn't matter to me

Now he takes these pills and he moves along
He takes these pills and its better
He bobs his head as he moves along
He takes these pills and its better
Now we take these pills and we move along
We take these pills and its better
We shake our hands as we move along
We take these pills cause its better

You know it really doesn't matter to me
You know it really doesn't matter to me
It really doesn't matter to me
'Cause it's better

Dreams Away

Oh, he says I'd like to turn myself, as he stares into the windowpane,
And if only I could be myself, but I'm sure you'd do the same to me.
I was only a guest that she wanted, it was more than that that he flaunted.

It's away, to you,
Away, to you.

So I pleaded, she needed to be herself,
and he dipped into his wishing well.
At any moment, any moment the sounds of the midnight train,
will be the mating call of his whippoorwill.

Should he wait 'cause his father drinks too much
had his paint thinner laced with his sleeping pills.

He'll find a way, to you,
away, to you.

So he dreamed away.
Away.

From these small streets,
and to where they lead,
and the holes that bleed,
from where he beats me,
cause of these stained sheets,
lets dream away.

And from my small tower,
every hour, seemed to take the day,
and so she dreamed away.

Oh, baby don't you that you're good enough?
Baby, don't you think that you're bright enough?
Baby, don't you think that you're good enough?
Baby, don't you think that you're good enough?
Don't you think that you think that you're good enough, for you?

Fighting Tao

If I'd've known it is the only time
I would see your face
Then we'd celebrate
When I'm alone living is only time
Till I see your face
Though it's not today

When I'm alone it is the only time
I will see your face
When I'm desperate
Now I'm alone building my holy shrine
Where I'll see your face
And then contemplate

If everything that's new is a lie
It's that same damn morning
And the same damn sky

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
Though I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you don't believe
Well I'll see you where the river meets us

Fighting the tide that takes me home
Only dreaming of the day
When the world will go away
A world that's full of pain
We fight the fight so that might know the fear of our mortality
If you breathe between the waves
You will end up in a lake

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
Though I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you don't believe
I'll see you where the river takes me

[Violin Solo]

And everything that's new is a lie
It's that same damn sun
In the same damn sky
And everything you thought you knew is a lie
God bless you son
At least you tried

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
So I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you won't believe
Well I'll see you where the river takes me

All I do (Just brings me close to you) (All I do)
You were all I'd see (Becomes a part of me... a part of me)
And all I do (Just brings me close to you)
You're all I see
And I'll see you when the river meets us

That (Such a Thing)

There's a place where people dance
While holding hands
To light of the moon, sing to me tunes
And I'm not ugly
And loved ones that died still survive with no pain

And I'd lose if it went away
Just how do I begin to explain?
By the way, your way or my way's okay
'Cause either way you don't have a name
It's when she loved me
The taste of the dew and the music in you

It's the moment that don't let you down
The place you go when there's no one around
The taste you know when the tears touch your mouth
Would you think? Would you seek? Would you find?

And know that it's always around
Yeah, know that it's always around

I know you tend to complicate
Every choice you make
Oh, please don't lose something so beautiful
It's very lovely
But who am I to stay in this world that I made?

And I knew when you went, went away
Yeah, I knew 'cause you whispered my name
And said you loved me
But how could I ever explain such a thing?

It's the moment you open your eyes
While you think that you're all still alive
'Til the taste of the tears will remind
What you feel, what you'd fear, what you'd find

It's the moment that won't let you down
It's your scream when you can't make a sound
It's all you see with the tears rolling down
It's what you think, what you fear, but you know you will find

And know that it's always around
Know that it's always around
And I know it's always around

Flowers

The children will sing
A song in the streets
Sounds like the 23rd psalm
To music of twenty-one guns
The flowers are dead
In a vase by the bed
In the place where the old woman died
It's the same place she started her life
The papers will all say her name
And probably print the wrong date

The day that you die
'Cause we're all gonna die

Cute little puppies and bunnies and birds
People who sing when they don't know the words
You will die

'Cause we're all gonna die
It's just part of life

All men, women, children, hermaphrodites, too
Animals, aliens, and certainly you
You will die

'Cause we're all gonna die
'Cause everyone dies

And all that was ever and all that will be
Single-celled creatures and anything green
You will die

'Cause we're all gonna die
Start saying goodbye

From the moment you start up this miserable life
You should know that it's only a matter of time
'Til you die

'Cause we're all gonna die
Start saying goodbye

And the morons at labels who think they know tunes
The army of lawyers that threaten to sue
The hookers that blow them when I just want food
And the asshats that download, and never buy tunes
You should die

'Cause we're all gonna die
I can't wait 'til you die

All Protestants, Catholics, and Orthodox Jews
You dumb Scientologists and guys who bend spoons
Well Buddhists, sort of, and Atheists, too
All you wack-job believers, nobody's immune
You will die

'Cause we're all gonna die
Kiss your ass goodbye

And sarcastic songwriters, guys with tattoos
Drummers and bassists and engineers, too
And every last person that sang in this room
They will die

'Cause we're all gonna die
Yeah, we're all gonna die
'Cause we're all gonna die
Yeah, we're all gonna die

And it's just a reminder of something that's frequently known
