Carnival Of Rust
Potf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
N' taste the blame if the flavor should remind you of greed,
Of implication, insinuation and ill will, till' you cannot lie still,
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain
Cos I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust
Cos without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
It's all a game, avoiding failure, when true colors will bleed
All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need
I lust for after no disaster can touch us anymore
And more than ever, I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before
Come feed the rain...
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning
The lyrics of "Carnival of Rust" by Poets of the Fall explore complex and introspective themes of spirituality, love, and the human experience. The first stanza begins by asking if the listener finds comfort in their faith during times of hardship and whether they are willing accept responsibility for their actions, even if they have been influenced by negative forces such as greed and ill will. The imagery of a "red cape and foil closing in for a kill" creates a sense of danger and urgency, perhaps warning against the consequences of giving into temptation.
The chorus of the song then shifts to a more romantic tone, as the singer implores their lover to "feed the rain" of their love. This metaphor suggests that their love is a life-giving force, like rain to a thirsty plant. The line "cos without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust" further emphasizes the importance of this love to the singer, and suggests that without it, their life is meaningless and empty.
The second verse delves deeper into the human experience, questioning the motives behind our actions and the lengths we go to avoid failure. The line "All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need" highlights the sense of self-destructiveness that can arise from our desire to rebel and obtain what we think we want. The final lines of the verse express a longing for a sense of stability and security, where "enough is not the same it was before."
The song ends with a plea to stay present and engaged in the face of hardship, whether it be the burning of the world or the yearning of the heart. The lyrics of "Carnival of Rust" tackle a range of universal themes in a poetic and thought-provoking way, leaving the listener to reflect on their own experiences and perspectives.

D'you breath the name of your saviour in your hour of need,
Do you call out to your savior when you are in desperate need?
N' taste the blame if the flavor should remind you of greed,
And don't be ashamed if you feel guilty about your own greed.
Of implication, insinuation and ill will, till' you cannot lie still,
Of indirect accusations, suggestions, and malice until you can't find peace.
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil closing in for a kill
In the midst of all this chaos, with danger looming and threatening to strike.
Come feed the rain
Come offer your emotional sustenance.
Cos I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust
Because I long for your passionate love under a lustful sky.
Yeah, feed the rain
Yes, offer your emotional nourishment.
Cos without your love, my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Because without your love, my life is like a never-ending, decaying fair.
It's all a game, avoiding failure when true colors will bleed
It's like a game of hiding our flaws, whereas our true selves will eventually be revealed.
All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need
All in the pursuit of unnecessary and unproductive behavior.
I lust for after no disaster can touch us anymore
I deeply desire a world where no harm can affect us anymore.
And more than ever, I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before
And more than anything, I hope to never face a time where what used to amaze me is no longer enough.
Come feed the rain...
Come offer your emotional sustenance.
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning
Please don't leave, please don't leave when everything is falling apart.
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning
Please don't leave, please don't leave when the heart is intensely craving.

LYRICS
D'you breathe the name of your saviour
In your hour of need?
And taste the blame if the flavor
Should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation, and ill-will
'Til you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil
Come closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust, oh
It's all a game, avoiding failure
When true colors will bleed
All in the name of misbehavior
And the things we don't need
I lust for after, no disaster can touch
Touch us anymore
And more than ever, I hope to never fall
Where enough is not the same it was before
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust (carnival of rust)
Don't walk away
Don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away
Don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning
Don't walk away
Don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away
Don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning

Carnival of Rust / Lyrics
To breathe the name
Of your savior
In your hour of need
And taste the blame
If the flavor should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation and you will
Till you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cave and foil
Come closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
It's all a game
Avoiding failure
When true colors will bleed
All in the name
Of misbehavior
And the things we don't need
I lust for after no disaster can touch
Touch us anymore
And more than ever, w hope to never fall
Where enough is not the same it was before
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love,
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love, my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Ooh, when the heart is yearning
