Gears That Never Stop

Gears that never stop Gears that never stop turning Automated but still alive Alive and burning Powered by a storm That hardly calms before it reforms Fixed in rotation Fueled by worry and anticipation Nowhere to take shelter in sight Every window and door boarded tight Like walking alone down a dark street Not knowing what's about to be unleashed At war with something in my head A doubt I feel every day A glitch inside the machine On and on and on, repeating Something in my head A war I fight from within Struggle goes on and on All along the way Under the gun yet restrained to a chair Bleeding out trapped in an elevator It feels like an impossible choice Critically ill but I can't make a noise Something in my head A doubt I feel every day A glitch inside the machine On and on and on, repeating Something in my head A war I fight from within Struggle goes on and on All along the way I close my eyes, I close my eyes I close my eyes to reset I close my eyes, I close my eyes I close my eyes to reset And change the nightmare And change the nightmare that I am in Thoughts like crashing waves Crumbling over and over again Gears that never stop Gears that never stop turning Gears that never stop Gears that never stop turning Gears that never stop turning (stop turning) Automated but still alive and burning Something in my head A doubt I feel every day A glitch inside the machine On and on and on, repeating Something in my head A war I fight from within Struggle goes on and on All along the way The gears that never stop (all along the way) The storm that never calms The gears that never stop The storm that never calms
