lyrics

I sleep with my computer instead of you
he loves me better than you used to
I sleep with my phone on plugged into the wall
so every message and every call
is there right beside me when I close my eyes
so I know that I'm alive

I sleep with my computer instead of you
he loves me like I, I wanted you to
he's always around when I'm feeling low
wraps me in his gentle electric blue glow
no arms to embrace me, I don't even care
cause he's always there

get my love on a screen
whoa-oh-oh
I'm sleeping with machines
electronic dreams
I'm sleeping with machines

I roll out of bed and onto the floor
still tangled up in his cables and chords
loving a robot, its better this way
never gets angry, never runs away
knows all of my secrets, knows all of my songs
I can always turn him on

get my love on a screen
whoa-oh-oh
I'm sleeping with machines
electronic dreams
I'm sleeping with machines

the nights are long
and lonely too
but not as lonely
as nights with you
and I'm alone
I'm alone now its true
but less alone than when I had you

I sleep with my computer yeah he understands
and I don't miss the love of real humans
he'll love me forever even when you won't
and loves me whatever I do or I don't
tells me he loves me in vibrates and beeps
videos and mp3s

get my love on a screen
whoa-oh-oh
I'm sleeping with machines
electronic dreams
I'm sleeping with machines

LAKES New York, New York

LAKES is a 4 piece pretty-grunge band, originally formed by Libby Winters and John Gallagher Jr after they met working on the Broadway production of American Idiot. Inspired by the theatrics and emotionality of early Green Day and Smashing Pumpkins, the textural landscape of My Bloody Valentine and Nirvana, LAKES is a fuzzy pink love letter to all your favorite 90s shoegaze/grunge heroes. ... more
