Rust

The hole we filled with the world we built And you know damn well it won't save us So hold it 'til the world stands still But you know damn well it won't save us We nailed it shut A world to rot And we beg from the bones of the soil to scream back "No, you can't save us!" "It won't be us!" It repeats it again like you breathe old rust Be the weight to the rope Be the wolf to the lamb But it won't do a good goddamn You can't save us The road lay long We were too far gone Did we burn that bridge? Am I just sleeping? Still breathing Carry gold to dust It repeats it again like you breathe old rust Be the change, be the hope Be the mind to the man Be the world to the flame But it won't do a good goddamn this waiting I will face it with my arms open I feel these eyes on me Drink in this sweet surrender (comfort me) I feed this desperate hunger I swallow all I'd hoped for So fuck your prayer for rain Pray for rust It won't save us I feel these hands on me Welcome this weight, surrender (comfort me) I am your rope, your burden The windowless room, the water So fuck your prayer for rain Pray for rust (Damn this waiting) You can't save us I feel these eyes on me Drink in this sweet surrender (comfort me) I feed this desperate hunger I swallow all I'd hoped for So fuck your prayer for rain I feel these hands on me Welcome this weight, surrender (comfort me) I am your rope, your burden The windowless room, the water So fuck your prayer for rain Pray for rust
