Blue Öyster Cult - The Machine

Lyrics to The Machine by Blue Öyster Cult

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 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 You’re the first thing I see every morning Your soft glow bids me goodnight You sing to me and in darkness You bring me 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
