The Machinist

The Machinist is a 2004 psychological thriller film directed by Brad Anderson and written by Scott Kosar.

Jennifer Jason Leigh, Aitana Sánchez-Gijón, John Sharian, and Michael Ironside appear in supporting roles. The film drew attention due to Bale's commitment, having lost 62 pounds (28 kg) in preparation for his role.

By force of will
grow as you suffer
don't you be still
and die like the others

My heart Is giving out
my thoughts just keep on dragging me down

I want to remember
 but I need to forget
and no I never feel regret
help me understand the pulse in my head
every sign of beauty Is a threat

why must i lust for a thing that will cease to exist
pick the glass out of my fist
i'll hold my breath for forever just to let this pass
nothing worth having ever lasts

blood on my fingertips
writing you a letter in red
I will live a life that's so complex
It will never find its end

Blood on my finger tips
Writing until I am dead
i will be the voice that haunts your head
you will never comprehend

bending under pressure
until I transcend
You only ever could pretend
open up the seams of your endless dread
every sign of hope Is a thread

how could i trust myself not to end myself
If I don't know how to hold back
I am the proof of hell In a guarded cell
and now I think I'm too detached

blood on my fingertips
writing you a letter in red
I will live a life that's so complex
It will never find its end

Blood on my finger tips
Writing until I am dead
I will be the voice that haunts your head
you will never comprehend

By force of will
grow as you suffer
don't you be still
and die like the others

Thrive alone
Till your overgrown
Thrive alone
Till your overgrown

All of hell burns inside of me
And now my demons will attack
All of hell burns inside of me
In the blink of an eye everything turns to black
