written by Matty Sheets. Performed by Magpie Thief. Recorded by Randy Seals at On Pop of the World Studios, Greensboro, NC.

lyrics

We are not machines.
We are not in the depths of hell.
Some of us in houses here,
painting on the walls.
Some of us drive bottle caps,
instead of big blue cars.
Maybe we're in a tragedy,
sprinkled with some comedy.
Maybe it's a big ordeal,
well, I hope I act the way I feel.
I hope that we don't burn and peel,
let's put out these flames of hate 'cause
they're all jumping off the Golden Gate.
Line up on the bridge
it's such a lovely view.
One by one, nah, baby, let's go two by two.
Let's hold hands.
Let's make do.
I'm not dead yet, and
neither are you.

We are not machines.
We are not in the depths of hell.
Some of us in houses here,
beating on the walls.
Some of us drive bottle caps,
on the way home from the bar.
Every day..

Magpie Thief Greensboro, North Carolina

Emily Stewart and Matty Sheets have been playing together for years, in this project they strip down their songs for a road worthy acoustic duo. Folk music with heart and street smarts.
