LyricMeaning

Rust
Justin Bailey

The prairie moon is almost spent

I told my Ma you just act like I never went

And you’ll see

Nothing’s ever gonna change

My love seduced by city lights

The giddy swirl and the flash of a million lives

To be

I lost my girl to New Orleans


As I walk

I fade away

As I walk

I fade away


I sent her my box of memories

And headed down to Mexico to find me a wife

That sings

Them dark haired girls always sing

But brilliant dreams are fickle things

The promised land a vision flickering in the desert heat

It flees

Death the only certainty


As I walk

I fade away


As I walk

I fade away


And my skin shrinks and turns to rust

My skin shrinks and turns to rust

The stars are flakes of molten dust


As I fade away

I turn to earth

And earth gives birth to molten steel

Cities arise

The shadows are lit

Man is made to think and feel

Like my kin

Before me

I have laughed and cried and screamed

If darkness comes

To take me in

I’ll be stronger than I dreamed

I am stronger than I dreamed

I am stronger than I dreamed
