my machine loves me
keeps me warm at night
my machine soothes me
we never fight
my machine loves me
for it I'll scream and die
my machine loves me
it'll never ask why

it'll take me up, and it'll make me perfect
it'll fix me up, and it'll make me worth it
because I am nothing I am nothing without my machine

The rhythm guitar part was inspired by a friend's methods for creating songs. The lead came out of Conor from someplace we didn't know existed. Both guitars are heavily effect laden. There is no bass line, something we will eventually rectify (either by looping prior to live performances, or by addition of another string player). Blake's Drumming is augmented by a loop of printer noises made by our studio guy. He is probably the coolest guy we'll ever record with, and we hope that we can continue to record with him. So, these lyrics were probably the product of working in a coffee shop. Tony saw a lot of people who basically lived to one up everyone. Most were into material possessions, and those were what sort of kept them going, their Tvs, dvds, 3000 girations a minute personal massagers, etc. They all worked their asses off for these things that never really improved their souls. Yeah, go material possessions, go!
