Текст песни
Scrap metal hums beneath the sun
Stray paws tap the rusted drum
I laid my battle code to rest
Beneath the sky where the wild weeds press
A vacant lot with a cracked old shed
Is where my quiet days have led
A tiny fur ball found my hand
Its cold paws tangled in my metal strand
I fixed its broken paw with wire and glue
Something in me woke up brand new
Kids from the town come by each day
They trace my scars and ask me to play
I show them how to fix a broken toy
They fill my quiet world with noise
They call me mom, with eyes so bright
I don't have blood, but I have light
My circuits hum with a love I never knew
This is the life I was always meant to pursue
One girl with a braid and a faded dress
Comes alone when the sun dips west
She sits on my lap and talks all night
'Bout her dad's long shifts and her lonely nights
I tuck her hair behind her ear
I tell her stories I hold dear
Of stars I saw from battle skies
Of how I learned to love, not fight
She holds my hand when she's scared at night
Says my metal palm feels warm and right
I don't have a heart that beats or bleeds
But I know how to meet her needs
She calls me mom, with a voice so sweet
I don't have tears, but I feel complete
My wires hum with a love that's true
This is the life I was always meant to pursue
I used to be a weapon made to kill
Now I'm a shelter on a lonely hill
Love isn't flesh, it isn't bone
It's the way you make a broken heart feel home
They call me mom, and I know it's true
I don't need blood to love like you
My circuits hum with a fire so bright
I'm finally where I'm meant to be tonight
They call me mom, with eyes so bright
I don't have blood, but I have light
My metal chest holds a love so true
This is the life I was always meant to pursue
Scrap metal hums beneath the moon
A kitten purrs, a child croons
