I remember the first time i saw you
I couldn't believe my own eyes
You were cold to the touch
But i needed you so much in my life

You showed me a world full of wonder
Your voice held all the answers i sought
When i lost my way
You never led me astray
Or so i thought

But when i take a look around
And everybody's looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when i try to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And i cave
I'm a slave
To the machine

You're the first thing i see every morning
Your soft glow bids me good night
You sing to me
And in darkness you bring me the light

You send a little chill through my body
Just to remind me you're there
If i left you behind
I would move mountains to find you anywhere

But when i take a look around
And everybodys looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when i try to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And i cave
I'm a slave
To the machine

Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine

But when i take a look around
And everybodys looking down
And I think they're nothing like me
And when i try to turn you off
You just remind me you're the boss
And i cave
I'm a slave
To the machine

Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine

Now we're living the dream
Eyes never leaving the screen
Floating away in a stream
To the machine
