Feed The Machine

Nickelback

Transposer:

[Verse 1] Addressing those beneath from high above Convincing his belief for what you love Baiting every hook with filthy lies Another charlatan to idolize [Pre-Cmhorus 1]   Is this suppression just in my mind? (just in my mind?)   No more questions get back in line! (just get back in line!) [Cmhorus] You pay with your life The duller the knife the longer it takes (the longer it takes) But now it’s your turn The ashes will burn and wither away Leaving your bones out on the stones picking them clean (picking them clean) And carving the truth while harvesting you to feed the machine (to feed the machine) [Verse 2] The gears forever turn to grind the mice Will you become the fuel for sacrifice? Power absolutely all for show The piper blows his flute and off you go [Pre-Cmhorus 2]   Is this obsession behind your eyes? (behind your eyes?) No more questions get back in line! (just get back in line!) [Chorus] You pay with your life The duller the knife the longer it takes (the longer it takes) But now it’s your turn The ashes will burn and wither away Leaving your bones out on the stones picking them clean (picking them clean) And carving the truth while harvesting you to feed the machine (to feed the machine) [Bridge] Why must the blind always lead the blind? (Get back in line! Get back in line!) Why do I feel like the fault is mine? (Get back in line! Get back in line!) Why must the weakest be sacrificed? (Get back in line! Get back in line!) No more questions get back in line! (Just get back in line!) [Cmhorus] Pay with your life The duller the knife the longer it takes (the longer it takes) But now it’s your turn The ashes will burn and wither away Leaving your bones out on the stones picking them clean (picking them clean) And carving the truth while harvesting you to feed the machine (to feed the machine) To feed the machine   [Ending]

Cette chanson évoque la manipulation et l'exploitation des individus par un système déshumanisant. Elle met en lumière comment des mensonges soigneusement élaborés peuvent amener les gens à se sacrifier sur l’autel d'une machine insatiable, symbolisant les forces qui cherchent à contrôler et à écraser l'individu. On ressent une profonde critique des figures d'autorité qui utilisent le pouvoir à des fins personnelles, tout en faisant pression sur les masses pour qu'elles suivent aveuglément. Le contexte semble refléter une société où les voix dissidentes sont étouffées, où les questions et les doutes sont vite réprimés au profit de l’obéissance. La chanson appelle à réfléchir sur notre propre position face à ce système et sur les sacrifices que l’on fait, souvent sans même s'en rendre compte.
