"The Machine" lyrics
"The Machine"
I remember the first time I saw you
I couldn't believe my own eyes
You were cold to the touch but I needed you so much in my life
Oh you showed me a world full of wonder
Your voice held all of the answers I sought
When I lost my way you never lead me astray or so I thought
But when I take a look around and everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off you just remind me you're the boss
And I cave
I'm a slave to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
You're the first thing I see every morning
Your soft glow bids me good night
You sing to me and in darkness you bring me the light
You send a little chill through my body
Just to remind me you're there
If I left you behind I would move mountains to find you anywhere
But when I take a look around and everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off you just remind me you're the boss
And I cave
I'm a slave to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
But when I take a look around and everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when I tried to turn you off you just remind me you're the boss
And I cave
I'm a slave to the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
