The Machine lyrics - Blue Oyster 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 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
