The weight of expectations, the burden we bear
We strive for excellence, with every nut and gear.
Yet amidst the melancholy of mechanical strife
We find beauty in the imperfections of life.
Fractures spread like silent cries
And fatigue whispers its bitter goodbyes.
The machines we craft, with love and care
Meet their end in a world unfair.
Oil flows like tears in the night
To ease the burden, to dim the light
But beneath the surface, the truth is clear
In the world of machines, sadness is near.
So as the pistons pump and the turbines spin
Remember the sorrow that lies within
For in this realm of mechanical art
Sadness and reality never part.
