Wrench In The Works
“Wrench in the works” is an alternative metal song about psychological abuse. When you feel stuck, mistreated and just can’t escape your situation it’s like someone threw a wrench in the works causing the machine to stop and being unable to move. Ironically, this hypnotic 6/8 beat makes you want to move. This song is part of my album “Going My Way”.
Nothing’s as it seems
Quit living your dreams
Dismantle the machines
and lose your self-esteem
Toss me and turn
Got no lessons to learn
I don’t know why I am so dependent
My longings and yearns
They will never return
It’s time for being insurgent
(I can’t move)
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
(I can’t move)
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
(wrench in the works)
I can’t move on
i can barely move on
I can’t move
I can’t move
I don’t know why I can’t move!
Stay on alert
Make me over-exert
Drop your weapons, desert
You threw a wrench in the works
Rave yourself hoarse
I am strung with remorse
You make me feel inconvenient
Don’t dry up my source
Gather my inner force
I want to be disobedient
(I can’t move)
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
(I can’t move)
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
I can’t move on
I can barely move on
(wrench in the works)
I can’t move on
i can barely move on
I can’t move
I can’t move
I don’t know why I can’t move
