Machine 03:39
Sitting in a rich man's garden Sun just keeps on shining doesn't matter what we left behind doesn't matter sun don't seem to mind the machine has taken you over The machine has taken you the machine has taken you over the machine take away all your memories take away all your fantasies living the future living in the past I just want to feel the present at last but the machine has taken me over the machine has taken me the machine has taken me over the machine has taken me the stakes are high this is your life don't move slow this is your home you're not alone you're not alone you're not alone how could you be alone? wait wait wait wait wait wait the machine has taken you over the machine has taken you the machine has taken you over the machine has taken you the stakes are high this is your life don't move slow this is your home (think therefore I am) you're not alone you're not alone you're not alone how could you be alone? the machine taken you

Watcher 02:47
who put the poison in your head who put the poison in your head I did I did I did I never know when it's gonna take over me I never know when it's gonna knock me off my feet the pain body something happens and I'm feeding into it something didn't happen and I'm feeding in and out I'm thinking about the past and thinking bout what did not work out oh the good times they are gone thinking bout tomorrow thinking bout tomorrow gotta beg or borrow but right now I never know when it's gonna take over me I never know when it's gonna take over me something I will do something that I know you can do too I am the watcher I am the watcher I am the watcher I am the watcher Not the thinker, no I am the watcher

Surrender 04:02
I'm surrendering to this current moment It can't be undone once it's been did I've imagined so much I've caused so much struggle Let's sit back and let the world be what it is ah ooh, ooh, ooh...ah ooh, ooh, ooh You'll keep having blues until you're finished You can't make a rainbow shine in black and white you don't like the way I love and you're fearing my religion deep down I feel that we're all unified ah ooh, ooh, ooh...ah ooh, ooh, ooh I'm surrendering to this current moment this moment's been before what it is i've wrung my hands but now I'll just forget it and slide blissfully into the abyss ah ooh, ooh, ooh...ah ooh, ooh, ooh ah ooh, ooh, ooh...ah ooh, ooh, ooh
