[Verse 1]
Got a clockwork heart
Need some time apart
Don’t know where to start
Of the time I spent with you
It’s a distortion
It’s broken
Hanging open
Just a token of the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
All these gears
Spinning lies in my chest
Every click
Is the sound of regret
You said “always”
Then you vanished like smoke
Left me wound up
Wired up
Ready to choke
[Chorus]
Clockwork heart
Tearing me in two (in two)
Every little tick keeps dragging me to you
Rust on the love
Chrome on the pain
Pulling all my strings till I break again
Clockwork heart
I can’t let it stop
If I turn you off I feel the drop
Winding
Winding
Still I fall apart
Prison in my ribs
This clockwork heart
[Verse 2]
You were velvet knives
Cutting through my trust
Sugar on your tongue
Iron in the dust
All our inside jokes
Now they taste like rage
Every memory
Like a ripped-out page
[Pre-Chorus]
All these gears
Spinning lies in my chest
Every click
Is the sound of regret
You said “always”
Then you vanished like smoke
Left me wound up
Wired up
Ready to choke
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals]
You twist the key
I lose control
You stole the time
I sold my soul
[screamed backing vocal]
Tear this metal from my skin
Let the silence flood back in
[Chorus]
