about

"Living Machine" (Kappel-Stone) is a catchy statement of perseverance that mixes Power-Pop & Americana.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Caught in the crossfire again
Winds of change snuck up ‘round the bend
It’s absolutely clear my location is... lost

Standing upright again
Hesitation is my new best friend
But grind the gears and turn a blind eye to the cost

CHORUS:
I’m a living machine
I’ll keep on ticking, it seems
Even when the times are tough
I can’t walk away from my dreams

I’m a living machine
I’m owner-operator, which means
I drive my own destiny
And make my mistakes with a grin.

Verse 2:
Clear-eyed and ready to roll
A bit of ego is good for the soul
My sights are set and my heart beats a pattern that’s bold
But what is this a mile down the road
A major detour is what I behold
I guess humility’s also, so good for the soul

Bridge:
Who even said I wanted a purpose
Who even said I wanted to go
Who even told me I would have a destiny
Who even said I do have a soul
