Rust

lyrics

How do I explain
Or even articulate
That every day that I’m awake
Is a day I fade away
Place chicken scratch to paper
As I scratch inside my temple
For any hatch that resembles
My simple solipsistic question

So here I stand
A hollow man
A broken piece
Of Gods great plan

So I get outside my head
And meet up with my friends
They say "hey dude we missed you
Where have you been?"
But I’ve been bleeding I’ve been bleeding
From all these senseless self beatings
And they scream “please believe it,
You are needed you are needed”
When will I know it
That I’m not that piece of shit
That people look at and they wince and throw up a little bit
I am so cold
But they hold me in a way that makes the pain go away
But I’ve been...

Slowly building up
My sense of self from dust
I once was just a husk
Rust covered in rust covered in rust covered in rust

In reality my sanity is hanging by a thread
But if I became balanced would my street cred be in shreds
When my identity is entirely the maniac you see
If I became healthy would I stop being me (NO!)

I have slowly been building up
My sense of self from dust
I was once just a husk
Rust covered in rust covered in rust covered in rust
And here I stand
Wet match in my hand
Mouth full of sand
Why do I keep eating sand?

Here I stand
Mouth full of sand
Please could you hold my hand
Stop me eating sand stop me feeling so goddamn bad
