Verse 1
F Dm
The daylight hits me like a bruise
B♭ Gm
I’m fresh out of excuses I can use
F Dm
I see the suitcase by the door
B♭ Gm
I don’t think you are listening anymore
F Dm
I’m tracing patterns in the dust
B♭ Gm
A monument to all the broken trust
F Dm
I should have stopped it at the start
B♭ Gm
But I love the sound of tearing things apart
Chorus
F Dm
I know I’m wrong
B♭ Gm
I knew it all along
F Dm
I’m driving on the wrong side of the lane
B♭ Gm
Just to see if I can stand the pain
F Dm
I know I’m wrong
B♭ Gm
To keep you holding on
F Dm
I’m burning down the house to feel the heat
B♭ Gm
And watching as you walk on down the street
F Dm
I know I’m wrong
Verse 2
B♭ Gm
You asked for truth, I gave you lies
F Dm
I see the static interference in your eyes
B♭ Gm
I’m self-destructive by design
F Dm
Running backwards through the finish line
B♭ Gm
I want to say I’ll make it right
F Dm
But I’m just looking for another fight
B♭ Gm
It’s in the wiring of my brain
F Dm
To stand out in the freezing rain
Chorus
B♭ Gm
I know I’m wrong
F Dm
I knew it all along
B♭ Gm
I’m driving on the wrong side of the lane
F Dm
Just to see if I can stand the pain
B♭ Gm
I know I’m wrong
F Dm
To keep you holding on
B♭ Gm
I’m burning down the house to feel the heat
F Dm
And watching as you walk on down the street
B♭ Gm
I know I’m wrong
Bridge

I take it back.
B♭ Gm
(I can’t take it back)
F Dm
I take it back.
B♭ Gm
(It fades to black)
F Dm
I’m the villain in the scene.

I’m the machine.

I’m the machine.

Chords auto-estimated from the song’s audio (bass = roots, guitar/synth = quality) and snapped to the detected key — a best-effort transcription, not a hand-verified score. To check accuracy, play the MIDI against the original recording (the verify player, when present, does this for you). Chord positions over the words are approximate to the repeating loop.
