mechanical man

part of the nameless masses, part of the big machine, you're nothing but a cogwheel, man, well died, conform, replaceable, think - sometimes you wake up, act - and wonder why, you're free to think that you're free, but somewhere truth is lost, the drudgery you like each day, is all you know, you don't complain, do you want to be a mechanical man?, don't you want to be free?, do you know your mind is no longer your own?, you will always be a mechanical man, you can never be free, being unaware of the powers you serve, you life's a vicious circle, you move but get nowhere, the only way you know to break out, is dreaming on the video, think - you've got to shape up, act - to make a change, but then you're just a chess piece, in someone else's game, he makes the move, you have your place, and destiny is preordained, so many others like you, they're living senseless lives, they will obey and walk their way, with vacant stares and empty minds, think - sometimes they wake up, act - and wonder why, but we are much too burned out, to light the flame of hope, the revolution will not come, our minds are tied behind our backs
