Crown The Empire - Machines (Official Music Video) 

Please tell me that I am not alone in this nice nostalgy journey.

that first scream omg

7 years have passed and yet this song remained the best song I've ever heard.

4 years later and I still cant listen to this song without getting chills at 1:09

1:09 - Best part of the song.

Crown The Empire released a photo, with a caption underneath, stating "If Machines gets 3M views, we will post our continuation!" Make sure you watch this as much as possible! 🙌

the pain in andy’s voice.. “we MUST be more than just machines..’’ 😪

I will forever love this song and it's message. The break down after the intro always gets me. Chills down my spine. The emotion just takes over. Will always be one of my favorite songs forever

That first scream is everything that's good in this world...

Love this song. I'm an old dude but man this really rocks.

1:09 the Legendary scream will sadly no longer be heard live. Still a legend vocalist till this day. My favorite vocalist from any band ever.

Who’s here in 2020 since the world is falling apart

Forever and ever my favorite CTE song. 1:08 will never not give me chills.

I've literally never met a person who doesn't like Crown The Empire, not one.

It's been eight years since this magnificant song came out. I've been listening to it since Day 1, and has been my Number 1 song for many years, sharing that spot with Bishop's Knife Trick by Fall Out Boy. That scream at 1:09 is so crisp. The amount of times I've heard this song is ungodly, truly a classic.

2021: still waiting for the continued part 😭 I'm not losing my hope...

squad goals: having matching badanas while taking over a hospital

Anyone who's courageous enough to embrace the full spectrum of human emotions understands the therapeutic effect screaming has on the well-being of our fragile minds. The more we try to ignore and medicate away the pain, the more blurry the line between man and machine becomes. Well played Crown The Empire..... well played.

2019 anybody? Song is still fire

😯 This song hits differently in 2021...

I literally just found this band and I'm so pissed at myself for not finding them earlier. I'm obsessed.

I'm depressed I'll never be able to hear that opening scream live...

I can't believe these guys were my neighbors. they've made it really far. i remember in highschool they screamed the spongebob theme song lmao

2024 anyone ?

Am I the only one who gets very emotional when listening to this song?.-.

I got the chills throughout the entire song, oh my god its just so perfect

Interesting fact: Post Malone (the rapper) auditioned to play guitar for this band but was rejected because his guitar strings broke.

"we can't afford to hide , we must embrace the pain .." -Covid19 2020- ..

HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS SONG BEFORE

Wow!!! Just started listening to this band 15 min ago and I'm already a fan!!!

After the recent events of Canada and all over the world. we need this song

This song still give me goosebumps after 5 years I don't hear.. wow

holy fuck the scream in the beginning is amazing!

We hold on to the lies to feel free, So shackled by smiles, so empty. We're scared of the war, so we've forgotten who we are. We've traded in hope for safety, we're raised in the smoke, Insisting that we're all too tired to light the fire, And shake the earth. But if all we are is just machines, then let's become a miracle And break free from these chains. We must be more than just machines, So let them hear our hearts, so let them hear our hearts. So let them hear our hearts, so let them hear our hearts! Yeah! Where will you run when there's no place left for you to hide? When you're faced with the flood, will you stand for the future, And swallow your pride? Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who dares to dream! I scream at the top of my lungs, I hope that I'm proven wrong! But if all we are is just machines, then let's become a miracle And break free from these chains. We must be more than just machines, so let them hear our hearts So let them hear our hearts! Where will you run when there's no place left for you to hide? When you're faced with the flood, will you stand for the future, And swallow your pride? Where will you run when there's no place left for you to hide? When you're faced with the flood, will you stand for the future, And swallow your pride? If all we are is just machines, then we must be the cogs, Inside the wheels of change. We must be more than just machines, We can't afford to hide. We must embrace the pain. If all we are is just machines, then we must be the cogs, Inside the wheels of change. We must be more than just machines, We can't afford to hide. We must embrace the pain.

6.5 years ahead of their time. Wearing masks. And that one person with that 17th century plague mask. Shit is crazy.

This song is amazing live

i swear to god this song will be in a movie eventually.. like mad max or something

anyone in 2024?

The moral of this story is: you cant trust the system

Wow, this song is dope. Love it when they start off slow and then unleash hell at 1:10

This band has matured so much as a whole. The theme and concept of the new album is phenomenal. The lyrics are superb and inspiring. I liked The Fallout but this album surpasses it indefinitely. Rather than feeling like one whole song, the dynamics and message stand out bringing another amazing album of 2014. I will always support y'all.

I heard this on Day 1 and it's been a part of my playlist. Just such a perfect song. The way the song ends and the vocals are left ringing over the silence just makes you want to hear it over and over again.

This song is forever in my top 3, it’s been with me around 5 years and will be till the end

this was my first ever crown song and I still love it after all these years. I'm hoping to see them November 14th for the 3rd time.

I want CTE for Christmas. That's it. Wrap them & stick them under my tree.

Who still hear it on oct 2019? 😍 Never bored with the first Scream

2021. I'm still waiting for continued

Haven't listened to this band in awhile, decided to come back and give 'em a try. I really like how they've developed!

Probably the best song on this fucking masterpiece of an album.

Start off the new decade with this masterpiece

Everyone's talking about the first scream, but can we also appreciate the part from 1:45-2:00? That just takes everything to the next level.

I am in love with this music video. I have recently fallen in love with the idea of music videos. They're so thought out and unique. They're mixed in a way that's so diverse. I just wanted to share that. I have found the beauty in them and they will be a very, very important aspect in my foundation. Thank you whoever made this music video; it has made me see the angle of light.

This isn't a song It's a battle cry

whos here in 2024?

The first scream is literally the reason I live . I love this song without actually knowing why ! great Just great

i know some would disagree with this statement but I firmly believe that this album is one of the best albums of the year in this genre.

I want the lyrics to this song on the back of my truck in big letters (without repeating the chorus) not as effective when just reading. I'm 40 years old but this is the best song ever. hologram is cool too

This song after 7 years, still remains deep in my veins. This band is like 3DG for me, deep love and pain

One of my favorites. Still has effect today

So good.

Oh my god, so beautiful. I listened to this band 2011 i think? but people judged my 'different music taste' (listening to anything other than pop-music on mainstream radio), so i left. Now i'm back and so sad because of the years of awesome music i've missed.

2022 e essa música ainda me arrepia

What the f have I been missing here people. Instant fan now.

Oh man, everytime. David's opening scream just gives me chills, right to the bone. And followed by Andy's golden voice?? God, take my money and my panties right NOW

Easily one of the best metalcore songs out there.

2019 and this song still slaps

I got to hang out with these guys in like 2012 up in Cleveland. Coolest group, they were nice as hell and completely respectful.

The most basic and attractive guy I go to class with told me he ADORES this song & then proceeded to headbang to this. Now I have a crush

i have lost count on how many time i have heard this but 1:09... i get goosebumps every. single. time.

This band is insane. Just found them - just started living.

that scream tho.... OMG

I listen to this song every morning to remember how much this band changed me and how this was the song that started the change in my life. Thank you CTE.

This is definitely their best song. Not the heaviest one I know, but the cleans on this are pure gold.

We're much more than just machines!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Nós somos muito mais do que simples máquinas!

Does anyone else’s heart just sore into smile after hearing that first drop no matter how many times you listen to it? I swear it gets me everytime.

This band has grown so much since the early days oh my god

Runaways will most likely be the continuing music video.

2023 y esta joya me sigue acompañando desde mi juventud, siempre te amaré Crown the empire

Just listen guys. I used to listen to this song every time I had trouble. Even after years passed, when I listen to this song again, I remember the memories I had. Thank you CTE for this amazing song

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "TO BE CONTINUED" ERJFBUIWBEFUBHER XD Great video, I have so many goose bumps :D

Is anyone else getting a Linkin Park vibe from this song?

You know what's amazing? It is not just a song or lyrics made in good beat, rhythm and melody, CTE make stories/series-like and that's so epic!

The heavy hook with the scream at 2:45 is like dropping a gear and hitting a shot of NOS.. pure energy !!!!!

This is so good and awesome

The intro is just epic.. this song is incredible..

I remember this song very well it’s currently 6am and I randomly thought “hey what’s that song about being just Machines” for some reason I thought it was written by Black Veil Brides but then I remembered it was crown. This song is absolutely legendary I remember it from my childhood. As a kid who grew up with hip-hop and rock this was always one of my favorites👍🏻

"Where will you run when there's no place left for you to hide? When you've faced with the flood. Will you stand for the future and swallow your pride?" Sounds like a message to capitalism in these complicated times (war, global warming, inequalities...). Cheers from France.

Give the man who wrote this song a cookie!

3:44 Is that dude holding a nerf gun wtf XD

quoting this song on a few poster boards before i head out to the protests. much love to everyone keep safe. we must be more than just machines. we can't afford to hide. we must embrace the pain.

Bro.... Ive heard this when I was 14 years old im now 25, I PLAY THIS SONG FOR MY DAUGHTERS AND THEY HEADBANG THE HELL OUT OF IT thank u so much man ur music will carry on for generations to come^^

Who else agrees that TR:ROTR should become a movie?

The chorus sounds scarily close to "Go the Hell For Heaven's Sake" by BMTH

Lyrics for those who want them: "We hold onto the lies To feel free So shackle our smiles So empty We've scared of the war So we've forgotten who we are We've traded in hope And safety for raising the smoke Insisting that we're too tired to light the fire and shake the earth... But if all we are is just machines Then let's become a miracle And break free from these chains We must be more than just machines So let them hear our hearts(so let them hear our hearts x3) **scream** Where will you run When there's no place left you to hide?! When you're faced with the flood Will you step on the future and swallow your pride?! (where will you run x2) Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who dares to dream I scream at the top of my lungs I hope that I'm proven wrong If all we are is just machines Then let's become a miracle and break free from these chains We must be more than just machines So let them hear our hearts (so let them hear our hears x3) Where will you run When there's no place left for you to hide?! When you're faced with the flood Will you step on the future and swallow your pride?! Where will you run When there's no place left for you to hide?! When you're faced with the flood Will you step on the future and swallow your pride?! If all we are is just machines then we must be the cogs inside the wheels of change we must be more than just machines we can't afford to hide we must embrace the pain If all we are is just machines then we must be the cogs inside the wheels of change we must be more than just machines we can't afford to hide we must embrace the pain Where will you run When there's no place left for you to hide?! When you're faced with the flood Will you step on the future and swallow your pride?!

From Thailand🇹🇭 2021 Love Crown The Empire❤️

1:09 Andy: LOOK GUYS, I'M A HELICOPTER!!!!

Glad to see how far Crown The Empire is coming along. Octane just added them and they have just been getting further as their career progresses. By far one of the most talented bands out there.

This was one of my fav bands when I was 13 ❤️

The good old days with Dave 😭😭😭 Crown The Empire will never be the same...

Thumbs up if this song is constantly playing in your head all day. I don't wanna feel alone, you know.
