  • Start the needle up again as I crawl to the chair
    Anticipate the pain
    Feel the charge in the air, sick fascination
    Can't wash away this alteration

    Beneath the machine
    Constant noise inside my head
    Trading blood for ink, into torture I will sink
    Beneath the machine again

    Sometimes a picture to make heads turn
    Sometimes a badge of honor earned
    Always a reminder of pain endured
    Never a way to say these words

    Beneath the machine
    Constant noise inside my head
    Trading blood for ink, into torture I will sink
    Beneath the machine again

    Just remember
    It's all for time
    By skin be judged, with my skin define

    Beneath the machine
    Constant noise inside my head
    Trading blood for ink, into torture I will sink
    Beneath the machine again
