The Beast And The Machine Lyrics - Singles - Eventide

I want to know, where I should go 

Should I follow your path or find my own? 

I know it's time to decide 

To figure out what to do with this life 

But can I really be free in your society 

Adjust to your norms and your beliefs? 

Can I be tamed within your frames 

Can I be free if I'm in chains? 

I am the monster you tamed 

A beast inside its cage 

Now I'm the bitter clown in your play 

A proud man drowning in shame 

Gave up on my dreams 

Sucked down in the flood that is the mainstream 

I transformed, became the norm that I fear the most 

I am the monster you tamed 

A beast inside its cage 

Now I'm the bitter clown in your play 

A proud man drowning in shame 

There's something calling deep within me 

Begging to be released 

I let myself die piece by piece 

In your machinery 

I've been adapting for so long 

It's time I finally got to see who's the weak 

The beast or the machine 

I am the monster you tamed 

A beast inside its cage 

Now I'm the bitter clown in your play 

A proud man drowning in shame
