Soul Eating Machine Lyrics
I'm gone I'm outta here, it's not the place for me
I've lost my sense of self and my reality
I can't believe my eyes, it's right in front of me
I watched you change your face
In hopes of changing me
You're never changing me
Like a soul eating machine
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
How do you sleep at night?
Now that's a mystery
You blew up every bridge
You've got your hooks in me
Tell me just one more thing
How did you come to this?
There's just one place for you
And it's your own abyss
Never to be missed
Like a soul eating machine
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
Nothing left inside
Like a soul eating machine
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
Soul eating machine
Soul eating machine
Soul eating machine
Soul eating machine
Soul eating machine
I've lost my sense of self and my reality
I can't believe my eyes, it's right in front of me
I watched you change your face
In hopes of changing me
You're never changing me
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
Now that's a mystery
You blew up every bridge
You've got your hooks in me
Tell me just one more thing
How did you come to this?
There's just one place for you
And it's your own abyss
Never to be missed
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
Nothing left inside
Feeding on my hopes and dreams
Screaming at the world outside
Now there's nothing left inside
Soul eating machine
Soul eating machine

The song "Soul Eating Machine" by Metal Church explores themes of disillusionment, betrayal, and the destructive power of the record business. It depicts the protagonist's decision to leave the toxic environment of the music industry that has caused them to lose their sense of self and connection to reality. The song also talks of those who willingly sell their soul and image to a company, and questions why they do it. This track is, overall, possibly inspired by Mike Howe's departure from the band in the mid-90s.
