The Emptiness Machine

Your blades are sharpened with precision Flashing your favorite point of view I know you're waiting in the distance Just like you always do, just like you always do Already pulling me in Already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends, I Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hopin' for what I won't receive Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine Goin' around like a revolver It's been decided how we lose 'Cause there's a fire under the altar I keep on lyin' to, I keep on lyin' to Already pulling me in Already under my skin And I know exactly how this ends, I Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hopin' for what I won't receive Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part of, part of I only wanted to be part of something I only wanted to be part I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hopin', so fuckin' naive Fallin' for the promise of the emptiness machine The emptiness machine [Outro: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong] (I only wanted to be part of something) The emptiness machine, oh (I only wanted to be part of) The emptiness machine
