[Verse 1]

Was that a dream? I'm awake

Sitting on the forest floor

Looking out

Can't recall the thing I used to be before

[Pre-Chorus]

I may be rust and steel

But there's simply no denying that I feel

[Chorus]

I don't wanna be a war machine

All the death and the pain, the guns and the ammo

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna turn back into what I've been

I don't wanna be a war machine

I am hard on the shell, but inside I am hollow

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna be a war machine

[Verse 2]

Being watched, without fear

Can I make my code extend?

New career

Could it be that I have met this thing called ”friend”

[Pre-Chorus]

I may be rust and steel

But there's simply no denying that I feel

[Chorus]

I don't wanna be a war machine

All the death and the pain, the guns and the ammo

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna turn back into what I've been

I don't wanna be a war machine

I am hard on the shell, but inside I am hollow

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna be a war machine

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

I don't wanna be a war machine

All the death and the pain, the guns and the ammo

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna turn back into what I've been

I don't wanna be a war machine

I am hard on the shell, but inside I am hollow

I don't wanna be a war machine

I don't wanna be a war machine
