Strange Institution

He stares alone at the night

No emotion shown

A glimmer of light

Now and then

Communication is broken down

Contact is lost

Just a machine between him

And his maker

It's a strange institution they call life

A nowhere existence, but who's right?

They gave you a mountain to climb

But left you no will to survive

It hurts to see him now

The way he is

Just a shadow of a man

That I once knew

A restless spirit running wild

Hey you! Hey you always laughed

In the face of disaster

It's a strange institution, they call life

A nowhere existence, but who's right?

They gave you a mountain to climb

They left you no will to survive

There's just a machine between him

And his maker
