Linkin Park – The Emptiness Machine Lyrics
(Verse 1: Mike Shinoda)
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
(Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda)
Already pulling me in
Already under my skin
And I know exactly how this ends, I
(Chorus: Mike Shinoda)
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

(Verse 2: Emily Armstrong, Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda)
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
(Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong)
Already pulling me in
Already under my skin
And I know exactly how this ends, I
(Chorus: Emily Armstrong)
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
(Bridge: Mike Shinoda, Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda)
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

(Chorus: Emily Armstrong)
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: Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda)
(I only wanted to be part of something)
The emptiness machine, oh
(I only wanted to be part of)
The emptiness machine
