[Verse 1]

Show me your insides, show me your secrets

Show  me what you desire - I can fake it

Show  what you wanted, so I can be it

And if I bend just right, I can make it

I didn't want you

I  wanna watch you change from a butterfly and into chains


[Chorus 1]

Lay  your heart into my perfect machine

I will show you what you wanted to see

Just  a mirror till I get what I need

The reverie was not of me

You never saw nothing

Never saw nothing


[Verse 2]

I'm  just a liar without deceiving

I'm just a broken clown make-believing

I should've let you know, you should've ran for cover

I'm just a parlor trick, a two-bit counterfeit


[Chorus 2]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will use it to protect you from me

I will never let you see what's beneath

So good for you and good for me

We told ourselves we're right where we ought to be


[Bridge]

Even you know, even you know

This was all for nothing

Just a sad show, just an ego

I suppose though, as far as I know

We were both pretending

I suppose so

But what do I know?

Even you know, even you know

This was all for nothing

Just a sad show, just an ego

I suppose though, as far as I know

We were both pretending

I suppose so

But what do I know?


[Chorus 1]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will show you what you wanted to see

Just a mirror till I get what I need

The reverie was not of me

You never saw nothing, never saw nothing


[Chorus 2]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will use it to protect you from me

I will never let you see what's beneath

So good for you and good for me

We told ourselves we're right where we ought to be


[Spoken Outro]

Unity through allegiance

A strong party means happiness for the people

Hard work makes a powerful nation

Contraband thought will result in audit and subjugation
