A Perfect Machine

The day I left you behind
Is still a scar on my mind
A mark I won't forget
If I convince you to stay
Would we start paving the way
To nice mistakes we won't regret
She said
You left a lot undone
The world won't stop for anyone
Take me away
Before we run out of time
This time
I just don't work without you
You just don't work without me
We'll come together
Like a perfect machine
And we'll keep on running
Strain the system
We'll run until we both fall apart
Then we'll pick up all the pieces
They all amount to something
Better than it was from the start
You and me
A perfect machine
A perfect machine
I keep confusing my words
You know I'm no good at this
I'm not sure what I need to say
I just can't maintain this way
I've got to figure it out
Why things break down when you're away
She said
Hey what are you thinking
Leaving me here while I'm shaking
I've got some things I need to get out
You drive the demons from me
You help to keep me clean
We fit together
Like a perfect machine
And we'll keep on running
Strain the system
We'll run until we both fall apart
Then we'll pick up all the pieces
They all amount to something
Better than it was from the start
You and me
A perfect machine
A perfect machine
With precision fit
Always running clean
All of us are dying
Might be the only thing that's true
So I won't waste my time
My time with you
My time with you

I'm here
Alone
In this nowhere
Where I've made a home
Aimless in direction
Seeking forgiveness
In my own reflection
Tonight
I destroy
The last presence of my grace
How I wish
I could maintain
The contented look on your face
Well I'm sure that I'm not evil
But I know that I'm no good
It's the conscience neglect
And I fail to reflect
On the things that I know I should
I have no
Feeling in my soul
But I don't
Miss it on the whole
Nothing ever stays the same
Replace that picture in your frame
I'm going through changes
And none of them are good
I'm doing things now
That I never thought I would
Well alright
I confessed
Still I don't feel so great
Cause there's none
Left to blame
Now that I control my fate
Well I never said I'm sorry
But you know I mean no harm
And no disrespect
But the world I reflect
Teaches never to disarm
I have no
Feeling in my soul
But I don't
Miss it on the whole
Cause I have the power to explain
Or I've completely gone insane
I'm going through changes
And none of them are good
I'm doing things now
That I never thought I would
And I'm alright
Staring out the window
Gazing upon the winter sky
Going over the voices
The choices
The questions
The wrong turns
The reasons why
I'm here
Alone
In this nowhere
Where I've made a home
Aimless in direction
Seeking forgiveness
In my own reflection
I'm going through changes
And none of them are good
I'm doing things now
That I never thought I would
Am I alright?
Am I alright?
Am I alright?
Am I alright?

Devin

It played out
Just like an old movie
Wonderfully predictable
And beautifully cliché
We snuck out late
To the park beneath the moonlight
Affraid of getting caught
And we liked it that way
She was
So much more than I had asked for
A whole lot more than I deserve
When I open my eyes in the morning
The first thought and the next will be the same
I'm consumed by my new obsession
She's the world that turns and Devin is her name
The night was perfect
Seemed like no one else was left in the world
My heart was racing
And I didn't know what to say
See her smiling
See her eyes reflect the moonlight
If I could be anywhere
I'd much rather stay with you
Stuck between
The finish and the start
One in the same and never falling apart
When I open my eyes in the morning
The first thought and the next will be the same
I'm consumed by my new obsession
She's the world that turns and Devin is her name
And Devin was her name
Name of the nightmare
I barely escaped
Barely survived
Remember our last dance
High on the rooftop
That's where we fell
And that's where we died
Time goes by
Time goes by
When I opened my eyes the next morning
I knew I'd never be the same
Headed off in a new direction
Found someone better with a different name
Goodbye
