Lyrics for Machine Gun

I saw a saviour A saviour come my way I thought I'd see it In the cold light of day But now I realise that I'm Only for me If only I could see Return myself to me And recognise the poison in my heart There is no other place No one else I face The remedy will agree with how I feel Here in my reflecting What more can I say? For I am guilty For the voice that I obey Too scared to sacrifice a choice Chosen for me If only I could see Return myself to me And recognise the poison in my heart There is no other place No one else I face The remedy, to agree with how I feel
