I remember you
Close the back-gate behind you
Say goodbye/watch the river
runnin' by you
Hear the whistle blow
You stand to go
Leavin' everything behind you
Don't wanna be a factory man
Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan
Spendin' yr' life, just chained to the machine
I remember you there
Standin' alone
At he top of the stairs
With yr' broken heart
- You were holdin' it in yr' hand -
Hear the whistle blow
You need to know
Whatever it is
That keeps you here
Don't wanna be a factory man
Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan
Spendin' yr' life, just chained to the machine
Well that's someone else's dream...
Day after day
You labour yr' life away
All the more you give it seems
The more they take away.
