i always hoped i was kind But what if i'm just scared Of being alone? i've always been told i was sweet. But maybe i'm just selfish And want to be loved? i always thought it was automatic But maybe i'm just programmed To manipulate them? i always hoped i could love. But if not, Then they don't deserve The machinations of a clockwork heart. So maybe I should let the gears Grow rusty and break down. At least this way, They'll see It was just a program... It was never actually Me.

Heart of Gears
