He was an alchemist, Turning my lead tears to gold, Because to him I was beautiful To him I was worth more.
He was a metalsmith, Fixing my broken copper wings With tarnished feathers Because to him, I could still fly.
He was a clockmaker Resetting my fragmented cogs and beating pendulum Spending hours and hours Because to him I was fixable.
But I am a just broken clockwork angel With lead tears, broken wings, and severed insides Rusted away by time and life And no amount of mending can save me
