lyrics

I NEVER GROW TOO FOND OF MY FRIENDS AND
I NEVER GET TO FAR FROM MY ENEMIES
AND I’LL EXPLAIN WHY YOU THINK THAT YOU KNOW ME WELL
‘CAUSE I AM AN ENGINE
IF YOU FUEL THIS FIRE, GIVE ME ENERGY
THEN I’LL COMBUST, YEAH I’LL BURN ALL YOU GIVE TO ME

I NEVER KNOW QUITE WHO TO BELIEVE IN
NEVER TRUST, NO LUST FOR ANYONE AT ALL
I DISSECT AND SELECT WHAT I NEED TO RUN
‘CAUSE I AM AN ENGINE
IF YOU FUEL THIS FIRE, GIVE ME ENERGY
THEN I’LL COMBUST, YEAH I’LL BURN ALL YOU GIVE TO ME

CAN’T STOP IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING
MY GOD YOU’RE HOLDING ME BACK
LAGGING AND DRAGGING AT MY HEELS YOU’RE
DEAD WEIGHT STOP THROWING YOUR LIFE AWAY
CAN’T STOP IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING
MY GOD YOU’RE HOLDING ME BACK
LAGGING AND DRAGGING AT MY HEELS YOU’RE
DEAD WEIGHT STOP THROWING YOUR LIFE AWAY

I NEVER KNOW QUITE WHO TO BELIEVE IN
NEVER TRUST, NO LUST FOR ANYONE AT ALL
I DISSECT AND SELECT WHAT I NEED TO RUN
‘CAUSE I AM AN ENGINE
IF YOU FUEL THIS FIRE, GIVE ME ENERGY
THEN I’LL COMBUST, YEAH I’LL BURN ALL YOU GIVE TO ME

CAN’T STOP IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING
MY GOD YOU’RE HOLDING ME BACK
LAGGING AND DRAGGING AT MY HEELS YOU’RE
DEAD WEIGHT STOP THROWING YOUR LIFE AWAY
