Rusted From The Rain
Billy Talent Lyrics

I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain
I am trying to move forward, but I am weighed down by the damage caused by previous experiences and hardships.

There's nothing left to salvage, no one left to blame
The damage done is irreversible and there is no one to blame for the current state of affairs.

Among the broken mirrors, I don't look the same
I no longer recognize myself when I look in the mirror because of the damage I have suffered.

I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain
The rain is a metaphor for the hardships and struggles I have faced, which have left me feeling worn down and rusted.

Dissect me 'til my blood runs down into the drain
I am so worn down that I feel like I am nothing but a machine, with no emotions or feelings left.

My bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins
My heart is so filled with bitterness and negativity that it feels like it is pumping oil rather than blood through my body.

I'm nothing but a tin man, don't feel any pain
I am so emotionally numb that I feel like I am made of metal, unable to feel any pain or joy.

I don't feel any pain, I don't feel any pain
I have become so desensitized to the struggles and hardships of life that I no longer feel anything.

I'm rusted from the rain
Once again, the rain is a metaphor for the struggles and hardships that have left me feeling worn down and rusty.

Go on, crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain
Even though I am already worn down and damaged, life continues to try and break me further.

Come on, strip me of my power, beat me with your chains
I feel like I am being held down and beaten into submission by the struggles and hardships I face.

And if I'm the king of cowards, you're the queen of pain
I feel weak and powerless in the face of life's struggles, while these struggles continue to cause me pain and suffering.

You hung me like a picture, now I'm just a frame
I used to have substance and meaning, but now I feel like I am just an empty shell of who I used to be.

I used to be a lap dog, now I'm just a stray
I used to be obedient and subservient, but now I feel lost and alone, with no one to guide me or give me direction.

Shackled in the graveyard, left here to decay
I feel trapped and helpless, stuck in a place where I feel like there is no escape or hope for the future.

Left here to decay, left here to decay
I feel like I am slowly deteriorating and decaying, with nothing to stop or slow the process.

I'm rusted from the rain
Once again, the rain is a metaphor for the struggles and hardships that have left me feeling worn down and rusty.

Oh, the sun will shine again
Despite all of life's struggles and hardships, I hold onto the hope that things will eventually get better and the sun will shine once again.

I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain
No matter how many times I say it, the hardships and struggles I have faced have left me feeling worn down and rusty.
