The Machine
Endless repeating, eight a.m coffee
Under eye bags and morning light
Early day traffic, time moves like molasses
Living life nine to five
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
Getting up early and staying up late
I'm watching the calendar as the days fly away
Always today and never tomorrow
Living life day to day
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
Spinning round and round on a merry-go-round
Everyone is talking but I don't hear a sound
If life is a ride then I'm still in the line
I'm waiting to take my turn
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
Under eye bags and morning light
Early day traffic, time moves like molasses
Living life nine to five
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
Getting up early and staying up late
I'm watching the calendar as the days fly away
Always today and never tomorrow
Living life day to day
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
Spinning round and round on a merry-go-round
Everyone is talking but I don't hear a sound
If life is a ride then I'm still in the line
I'm waiting to take my turn
And in that time
I'm wasting away
I'm just a cog in the machine
That doesn't know my name
I'm just a number
Simply playing the game
And there's no need to shout
It's always this way
