He doesn't wanna change as he steps off the plane

His heart twists in his chest

He smells the river and my head, takes the paper from my hand he says

I get tired of the skies too

Boy I bet you do

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?

Are you gonna get tough?

Auburn skies in the rust

Oh oh

Hot shit, got rich from throwing a stone

Down the river I went without a chill to my bone

It was all that I had and all I wanted to know

I was moving so fast I was out of control

I didn't know what I had until you threw me a rope

Now I'm working it out

I'm trying to soften the stone

And she said

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?

And I get you've gone off track

I'll get you back on

And I get you want it back

That won't be possible

When it's coming down, yeah it's coming down

Oh, oh

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?

There's a beauty in the rust

There's a song in the rust

Auburn skies in the rust

So are you gonna get tough?
