Rogue Machine (Don't Say That You Want Me) Lyrics
I broke a promise to myself
And took my heart down off the shelf
And hey, what a very, very fine day
What's the point in a kevlar vest
You put a hole into my chest
And oh, I know, two weeks are impossible
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
Chase a rabbit in the ground
And wait for hours, no sight or sound
And oh, my soul, looking for an inch of hope
I stretch it lengthwise across the road
From Montreal to Mexico
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
We are intersecting lines
We crash in flight
Like a rogue machine
You are ultraviolet light
It burns my eyes
And it's all I see
Don't say that you want me
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Let yourself go
Let yourself go
And took my heart down off the shelf
And hey, what a very, very fine day
What's the point in a kevlar vest
You put a hole into my chest
And oh, I know, two weeks are impossible
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
And wait for hours, no sight or sound
And oh, my soul, looking for an inch of hope
I stretch it lengthwise across the road
From Montreal to Mexico
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Left in your bones
We crash in flight
Like a rogue machine
You are ultraviolet light
It burns my eyes
And it's all I see
Say that you need me
Let yourself go
Don't try pretending
There is no feeling
Let yourself go

"we are intersected lives we crash & fly like a war machine?? you are ultra violet light it glares my eyes?? it's all i see"
The correct lyric is "like a rogue machine" just like the title of the song. The rest of it looks right to me as best as I can tell.
Love the Daylights and this is an awesome song.
Okay, here are the correct lyrics as they are written in the booklet that comes in the CD:
I broke a promise to myself And took my heart down off the shelf And hey, what a very, very fine day What's the point in a kevlar vest You put a hole into my chest And oh, I know, two weeks are impossible
Don't say that you want me Say that you need me Let yourself go Don't try pretending There is no feeling Left in your bones
Chase a rabbit in the ground And wait for hours, no sight or sound And oh, my soul, looking for an inch of hope I stretch it lengthwise across the road From Montreal to Mexico And wait for hours, no sight or sound
Don't say that you want me Say that you need me Let yourself go Don't try pretending There is no feeling Left in your bones
We are intersecting lines We crash in flight Like a rogue machine You are ultraviolet light It burns my eyes And it's all I see
Don't say that you want me Say that you need me Let yourself go Don't try pretending There is no feeling Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Those are the lyrics as written by the Daylights in the album booklet so I assume that they're correct. Overall this is an AMAZING song and I hope that more people will discover this incredible band soon. They really are the best.
Oops! That "And wait for hours, no sight or sound" that comes after "From Montreal to Mexico" wasn't supposed to be there. Sorry about that.
