I didn't want us to fuck, I wanted us to make love

I didn't want the cups on my bedside table stacking up

'Cause I said I would get it together

But I don't think I'll be ready to ever let it go

Old habits die hard and I'm trying to sleep the damage off

It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand

It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand

Lights come on and there's nobody home

And, oh, my love, pushed my back against the wall

Can someone tell God I should be feeling this more?

I can't love you like I am supposed to

Baby, you're the machine and I'm the ghost

I didn't want us to fuck, I wanted us to make love, oh-woah

You never learnt the difference, I want better for the both of us

All this guilt is getting harder to deal with when I sober up

Ecstasy on LED floors

Trying to be someone, more than just a daughter

More than just a body you can watch and then get bored of (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)

More than just a room of people talking (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)

'Cause everything starts hurting when I see the world in colour (It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand)

And I wanna turn it off, but

Lights come on and there's nobody home

And, oh, my love, pushed my back against the wall

Can someone tell God I should be feeling this more?

Oh, I'm not at the party and I'm not in my body

You're a machine and I'm the ghost

You're the machine, I'm the ghost

You're the machine, baby, I'm the ghost

You're the machine, baby, I'm the ghost

You're the machine and I'm the ghost

It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand

It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand

It hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand, it hurts to stand
