Silent Machines Intro
Glass and the Ghost Children / Le Deux Machina (acoustic)
(BC spoken word before outro: With every fire that she put out, all the boys would scream and shout. They wanted more than she could give. To see if she could melt their failings, feel and feel. Boys they always wanted to meet her. The ones they read about and saw on TV. For every shot they took, they knew. They’d steal a little closer to her. (singing) As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled inside her. As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her. They crawled inside her. (speaking) And she told them that everything was gonna be okay. Okay.)
