Fates Warning Part Of The Machine Lyrics

Just another face in the crowd
wandering towards obscurity.
Driven by the 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.
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/f/fates-warning-lyrics/part-of-the-machine-lyrics.html ]
Immersed in the cause
and 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.
