I'm A Machine
Glass Lux Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My body's on
cause the beat is fast
the lights are off
gonna make it last
make it last
the night is long
my body's on
gonna make it last, make it last
my bodys on
cause the beat is fast
The lights are off
Gonna make it last, make it last
Cause the night is long
my body's on

I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance

I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance

you start me up
cause I dont know
Oh what I see
what I see
the overload
gonna shut down
the audio
the audio
the systems on
the reverse track
gonna play it back
play it back
call me on
to play the show
well make them know
make know

I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance

I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance

Bright lights turn me on
audio
the night life's
got me dying solo
Bright lights turn me on
audio
night life's got me dying solo

I'm a machine
I'm a machine
I'm a machine
wind up and dance
I'm a machine
I'm a machine




I'm a machine
wind up and dance

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Glass Lux's "I'm A Machine" convey the feeling of being completely consumed by the rhythm and the energy of the party, to the point where the singer feels like they have become a machine. The pulsating beat has taken over, and the lights are off, heightening the senses and intensifying the experience. The night is long, but the singer is determined to make it last, to keep dancing until they shut down.


The repetition of the line "I'm a machine, wind up, and dance" emphasizes the singer's feeling of being robotic, as if they are following a set program. The overload and the audio on the reverse track, suggest that the singer has become overwhelmed by the sound and the experience, and they need to shut down. However, the call to play the show, to make them know, implies that the singer has a desire to entertain and to be seen, despite feeling like they are just a machine.


Overall, "I'm A Machine" captures the feeling of losing oneself in the moment, of becoming so engrossed in the experience that you feel like you are no longer in control. The pulsating beat, the bright lights, and the intense energy of the night-life all contribute to the sense of being consumed by the experience.
