Only the lonely know what it's like
Running on empty blinded by the light
I want to break free of the chain
How soon is now?
I wanna leave today

Only the lonely know what it's like
Running on empty blinded by the light
I want to break free of the chain
How soon is now?
I wanna leave today
I skip town like a refugee
A man of constant sorrow running down a dream
A hungry heart I was born to run
So long, so long it was good to know yuh!

Oh you know
This machine kills sadness
This machine kills sadness
Oh you know
This machine kills sadness
This machine kills

Hard travelin goin down the road
No pastures of plenty no diamond soles
Night moves I'm up against the wind
The crossroads are just around the bend

Hey tonight, I'm leaving on a jet plane
To somewhere they can't find me
And I'm never going back again
Carry on, carry on!
I'll sleep when I'm dead

Oh you know
This machine kills sadness
This machine kills sadness
Oh you know
This machine kills sadness
This machine kills
