[Verse 1]
AmShow me your insides
AmShow me your secrets
FShow me what you desirEme
I can fake it
AmShow what you wanted
AmSo I can be it
FAnd if I bend just rigEmht
I can make it
AmI didn't want you
AmI wanna watch you Fchange
From a butterEmfly and into chains
[Chorus 1]
AmLay your heart into my perfect machine
CI will show you what you wanted to see
FJust a mirror till I get what I need
EmThe reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
[Verse 2]
AmI'm just a liar without deceiving
FI'm just a broken cloEmwn
Make believing
AmI should've let you know, you should've ran for cover
FI'm just a parlor trick, a Emtwo-bit counterfeit
[Chorus 2]
AmLay your heart into my perfect machine
CI will use it to protect you from me
FI will never let you see what's beneath
EmSo good for you and good for me
We told ourselves we're
Right where we ought to be
[Bridge]
FEven you know, even you know
This was all for Amnothing
Just a sad show, just an ego
FI suppose though, as far as I know
We were both pretAmending
I suppose so
But what do I know?
FEven you know, even you know
This was all for Emnothing
Just a sad show, just an ego
FI suppose though, as far as I know
We were both pretEmending
I suppose so
But what do I know?
[Chorus 1]
AmLay your heart into my perfect machine
CI will show you what you wanted to see
FJust a mirror till I get what I need
EmThe reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
[Chorus 2]
AmLay your heart into my perfect machine
CI will use it to protect you from me
FI will never let you see what's beneath
EmSo good for you and good for me
We told ourselves we're
Right where we ought to be

[Verse 1]

Show me your insides

Show me your secrets

F Em

Show me what you desire

I can fake it

Show what you wanted

So I can be it

F Em

And if I bend just right

I can make it

I didn't want you

Am F

I wanna watch you change

From a butterfly and into chains

[Chorus 1]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will show you what you wanted to see

Just a mirror till I get what I need

The reverie was not of me

You never saw nothing

Never saw nothing

[Verse 2]

I'm just a liar without deceiving

F Em

I'm just a broken clown

Make believing

I should've let you know, you should've ran for cover

F Em

I'm just a parlor trick, a two-bit counterfeit

[Chorus 2]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will use it to protect you from me

I will never let you see what's beneath

So good for you and good for me

We told ourselves we're

Right where we ought to be

[Bridge]

Even you know, even you know

This was all for nothing

Just a sad show, just an ego

I suppose though, as far as I know

We were both pretending

I suppose so

But what do I know?

Even you know, even you know

This was all for nothing

Just a sad show, just an ego

I suppose though, as far as I know

We were both pretending

I suppose so

But what do I know?

[Chorus 1]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will show you what you wanted to see

Just a mirror till I get what I need

The reverie was not of me

You never saw nothing

Never saw nothing

[Chorus 2]

Lay your heart into my perfect machine

I will use it to protect you from me

I will never let you see what's beneath

So good for you and good for me

We told ourselves we're

Right where we ought to be
