[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
'Cause our clockwork is spinning on
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
'Cause our clockwork is spinning on
[Bridge]
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 shame right off my face
[Chorus]
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
'Cause our clockwork is spinning on
[Outro]
'Cause our clockwork is spinning on
