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.
|
|
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.
