Lowlife is the first track on the second disc of the Beautiful Machine special edition. It was released on iTunes as the fifth single for the album, featuring the same cover art as the album it came on.
Selling, we hardly make a sound
Rebuilding the temples we tore down
Our leaders are slaves to businessmen
We can't hide
And you need to find a reason
For every action there's an opposite reaction
I watch you slip and fall away
I sit and hope for better days
I don't need to be reminded
I watch you fade into the grey
I am a god and I'm a slave
I don't need to be reminded
Your insides are slowly wearing out
The kingdom is sitting on the couch
Don't hate me, I'm doing all I can
We're feeling
If you need to find a reason
For every action there's an opposite reaction
I watch you slip and fall away
I sit and hope for better days
I don't need to be reminded
I watch you fade into the grey
I am a god and I'm a slave
I don't need to be reminded
If you need to find a reason (you're a lowlife, below life)
If you need to find a reason (you're a lowlife, below life)
If you need to find a reason (you're a lowlife, below life)
If you need to find a reason (you're a lowlife, you're below life)
I watch you sit and fall away
I sit and hope for better days
I don't need to be reminded
I watch you fade into the grey
I am a god and I'm a slave
I don't need to be reminded
