From the recording Unplayed: The Chronicles of Lady Lyric
Ever felt like you just don’t fit anywhere? Or like past mistakes disqualify you from a bright future? Take heart — You are precious and unique, with a perfectly designed destiny!
Lyrics
The Master Clockmaker has a grand design
A place for all people till the end of time
You sit in frustration, the days click by
Can’t find where you fit, you wonder why
Well, I’ve been where you are and I’ve found
When it seems your life’s come unwound
You’re not a Lost Cog or a helpless cause
Not a sprung spring, or a worthless thing
You’re not a tarnished chain or a family stain
Not the spare part you think you are
No, you’re not a Lost Cog!
Life’s great pendulum, it never slows
Been chasing your dreams but nothing yet to show
Mistakes and failures taunt you night and day
Words from others left your soul in pain
Don’t let their words freeze you in time
‘Cause Love is playing a different chime
One day when history’s all been told
You’ll see you’re worth far more than gold
You’re not the sum of all your scars
You’re a precious, priceless part
You’re not a Lost Cog; you’re a precious part
Not a sprung spring, but a timely thing
You’re not a tarnished chain; you’re a key for change
Not the spare part you think you are
No, you’re not a Lost Cog!
