sorrow machine

I brought fire to burn it all down
Pay what you want, step right up and gather 'round
Sky full of flames that smother the town
I wanna keep you 'round, I wanna keep you down

Cries from the audience flow
Gotta give what they want, peel your skin, never undersell
I got the hang of self-destruction, forgive my last farewell
I came to bleed for your seduction, wish me well

Providing a shoulder
For you to lean on and I bring you my pain
Denying you closure
Dwelling in all the problems I create
Became the sorrow machine, you know I'm running from something
And you can't escape it
You think you're falling for me, I know you're falling for something
'Cause no one is safe yet

I'm resenting who I've become
I spill out on the streets gasoline from my petty tongue
And my heart is a book of matches, it's probably best you run
I'll bring the flare from the smoke and ashes for everyone

Providing a shoulder
For you to lean on and I bring you my pain
Denying you closure
Dwelling in all the problems I create
Became the sorrow machine, you know I'm running from something
And you can't escape it
You think you're falling for me, I know you're falling for something
'Cause no one is safe yet

Heard you calling, I've come back to let you down
King of sorrow as I turn and make you proud
And though I yearn for your validation, I was so desperate to let it out
Now that you all have learned a lesson, let's burn it down
