[Intro]
Broken gears, rusted dreams
Your voice still haunts these factory scenes
Never thought you'd be the one
To pick me up when I'm undone
[Verse 1]
Middle school halls, you laughed at my clothes
Called me broke while I froze
Factory smoke in my lungs, dad worked late
While you walked past our rusty gate
But karma's got a twisted sense of humor, yeah
Now look who's standing in my corner
When the bills came crashing down like thunder
You emerged from the shadows, I still wonder
[Chorus]
Who would've thought you'd save my old man?
All these years I couldn't understand
Now the machines keep grinding on (grinding on)
While my pride keeps dying strong
You turned pain into a healing song
F*ck, I was wrong, so wrong
[Verse 2]
Remember when you spat my name?
Now you're organizing shows, that's f*cking insane
Dad's medical bills piling up like scrap metal
Yet you showed me kindness, soft like rose petals
The factory's dying but we're still alive
Your ghost in my headphones helps me survive
Static in my brain when I see your face
Years of hatred dissolving into grace
[Bridge]
The machines keep turning (turning)
While my heart's still learning (learning)
How to let go of this pain
Through the industrial rain
[Chorus]
Who would've thought you'd save my old man?
All these years I couldn't understand
Now the machines keep grinding on (grinding on)
While my pride keeps dying strong
You turned pain into a healing song
F*ck, I was wrong, so wrong
[Outro]
Marina, I'm sorry for holding on so long
To a hatred that was dead and gone
The factory's silent but we found our peace
In the breakdown, we found release
