Kings fought for wisdom for truth and love And they watched for a sign sent from above Blind to the fact that it was hidden in plain sight Hopeless to find their soulful light
Can you hear the bells Ringing like screams Can you hear the sound Filling up your dreams Can you feel the gears Spinning in your head Will you choose to stay Or leave instead Sometimes the clockwork in my mind Synchronizes with yours in time Now you can forget what I've done wrong Because our clockwork is spinning on
I fought for something I couldn't know It took me too long to let it go Depending on you was too much to ask When finding myself was its own hard task
Please forgive me I've caused enough pain You can't save me I've lost my own game So I'm dusting off This old machine I call a heart I'm coming clean And putting cogs Back in their place And wiping my shame Right off my face
