Gears

[Solo Progressive Instrumental] [Verse 1] You're the wrench in my gears, With every turn, you bring me tears. Mechanical heart, rusted and worn, In your presence, I feel torn. [Pre-Chorus] You pour water on my flame, Dousing the fire, erasing my name. Industrial spirit, cold and unkind, Leaving me stranded, lost in my mind. All I yearn for, you snatch away, As you wander further day by day. Fallen victim to your own distress, Alone in sadness, I find my way. [Progressive Heavy Metal Drums] [Chorus] [Bridge] In the silence before the storm, I stood alone, battered and worn. But from the ashes, I rise anew, With strength and purpose, to pursue. [Verse 2] I won't apologize for how you feel, Lost in the chaos you cannot heal. Sickened by your relentless pride, Dragging us both down in your tide. [Progressive Heavy Metal Drums] [Verse 2] Your words cut deep like razor blades, Leaving scars where love once played. In the wreckage of our broken schemes, I'm left to salvage fading gleams. [Bridge 2] The weight of your ego, a burden to bear, Crushing hope with each ounce of despair. But I'll forge ahead, despite your disdain, Finding solace in my own refrain [Verse 4] Your grip loosens as I break free, From the chains of your toxicity. I reclaim my voice, my strength, my might, No longer confined by your fading blight. [Bridge] You pour water on my flame, Dousing the fire, erasing my name. Industrial spirit, cold and unkind, Leaving me stranded, lost in my mind. [Chorus] All I yearn for, you snatch away, As you wander further day by day. Fallen victim to your own distress, Alone in sadness, I find my way.
