Rust

There's nothing here I couldn't break

If I loved it hard enough

Nothing that wouldn't crumble in my hands

There's nothing here I couldn't crash if I sat behind the

wheel

Nothing that wouldn't fall apart if I tried to hold it

together

Please, please, please

Please don't lie to my face

Your face never lies to me

There's no one who wouldn't play a hero

If I threw a masquerade

No one could fool me in disguise

There's no one heavy I couldn't raise them

Nobody so light as to blind my eyes

No stone I couldn't turn to gravel if I tried to hold it

together

Sweet corroded love

I still see myself in your shiny patches

But rust is going to claim you from me soon

I taste the reservation in your kisses

I see it in the twitching of your nose

I know by the way you look right past me

You're showing what you think that you don't show
