The Machine - Anjulie

Get a house, go to work, get a job

Go to school, get a man, get a dog

Get love, get fucked, but don’t get 'em twisted

Get a friend, vacation, on the weekend

Find a scene, play a sport, get in fashion

TV show, you can talk about with passion

Gluten-free, hybrid, culture clashing

Looking for the win

We’re all part of the machine

All standing in our place

The silent trumpets play

Tempting us with fake illusive happiness

Better hold onto your dreams

Before they drift away

The clowns are closing in

Singing join the crowd

Of morning birds and loneliness

Get ahead, get a raise, get a god

Buy in one click, scan your credit card

Profile picture looking too pretty

Make a face, make it weird, make it look silly

Small meals often not larger

Work smarter not harder

Smile, vote, shake hands, but don’t forget to

Make eye contact

We’re all part of the machine

All standing in our place

The silent trumpets play

Tempting us with fake illusive happiness

Better hold onto your dreams

Before they drift away

The clowns are closing in

Singing join the crowd

Of morning birds and loneliness

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Running from your fears

Machine

All standing in our place

The silent trumpets play

Tempting us with fake illusive happiness

Better hold onto your dreams

Before they drift away

The clowns are closing in

Singing join the crowd

Of morning birds and loneliness
