Rust never sleeps
me Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I say I've missed you
Do you think me righteous
When I close my eyes
I tried, but again I lied
Do you think me generous
When I buy you things
Rust never sleeps
I tried, but again I lied
Lust has taken me over
One last time
It hasn't happened in a long while
My knees are shaking
I'm sailing the worst of storms
Rust never sleeps
Do you think me sinful
When I explain this
My thoughts are bound to you now
My innocence is bliss
I tried, but again I lied
Lust has taken me over
One last time
It hasn't happened in a long while
My knees are shaking
I'm sailing the worst of storms
Rust never sleeps
Can a load be
Lifted from
The ones that keep
On blaming themselves
On and on
The lyrics of Me's song "Rust Never Sleeps" explore the themes of faithfulness, righteousness, generosity, and lust. The singer questions whether their actions can be deemed as faithful or righteous and admits to lying about their behavior. They try to compensate by buying things to keep their partner busy, but they are aware that rust never sleeps, implying that even if they try to keep their relationship polished, it will eventually degrade. The idea of rust as a metaphor for decay and the passage of time is recurring throughout the song.
The singer also confesses to succumbing to lust, admitting that it has taken over them before, and it's happening again after a long while. They describe the intensity of the experience, using metaphors such as sailing in the worst of storms and having their knees shaking. Despite acknowledging that they have sinned and their thoughts are bound to their partner, the singer still feels like their innocence is bliss.
The song ends with a question about whether blaming oneself can ever end if the load is lifted. The final lines suggest that the singer is in a cycle of feeling guilty and asking for forgiveness, but they are not sure if they can ever break free from it.
