Erin Lecount Machine Ghost Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I didn't want us to f*ck, I wanted us to make love
I didn't want the cups on my bedside table stacking up
'Cause I said I would get it together, but I don't think I'll be ready to ever let it go
Old habits die hard and I'm trying to sleep the damage off

[Pre-Chorus]
(It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)
(It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)

[Chorus]
Lights come on and there's nobody home
And oh, my love pushed my back against the wall
Can someone tell God I should be feeling this more?
I can't love you like I am supposed to
Baby, you're the machine and I'm the ghost
[Verse 2]
I didn't want us to f*ck, I wanted us to make love, oh-woah
You never learnt the difference, I want better for the both of us
All this guilt is getting harder to deal with when I sober up

[Bridge]
Ecstasy on LED floors
Trying to be someone, more than just a daughter
More than just a body you can watch and then get bored of (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand) More than just a room of people talking (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)
'Cause everything starts hurting when I see the world in colour (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)
And I wanna turn it off but

[Chorus]
Lights come on and there's nobody home
And oh, my love pushed my back against the wall
Can someone tell God I should be feeling this more?
Oh, I'm not at the party and I'm not in my body
You're a machine and I'm the ghost
You're the machine, I'm the ghost
You're the machine, baby, I'm the ghost
You're the machine, baby, I'm the ghost
You're the machine and I'm the ghost

[Outro]
It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand
It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand
(It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)
