Rust

 

Rust

Tyler Dameron

 

 

Wander for endless hours through empty corridors

In towers with a thousand floors

A thousand scores of locusts

Showering your body, writhing through your pores

The course of nature which acts through time

You’re the rust on metal when rain’s in your mind

When pain is all you find

In a box labeled memories

Sane is just an afterthought

When you really know your enemies

Make a quick escape from fate

Reality agrees to wait

Isolate to place in your mind you think is safe

Looks like you just took the bait

Keep in mind, this is supposed to be rap
