Part Of The Machine - Fates Warning
Just another face in the crowd
Wandering towards obscurity
Driven by dull desires of a worn out routine
Stagnant in the suffocating
Silence of emotional exile
A fugitive from freedom surrenders to mediocrity
A helpless voice starting to sink
You could make a choice
But you never learned to think
Weary and weakened victims fall prey
To vague ideals and passionless play
Systematic spontaneity in synchronized society
Immersed in the cause
The call of the day
Sacrificed inner needs give way
To shared individuality in collective reality
A spirit of belonging satisfies your longing
But the truth is never seen
False sense of freedom grows
But dependency shows your part of the machine
A hopeless choice searching
For someone real
You could find that voice
But you never learned to feel
