LilZRock - Rust Lyrics

Never brings pain shifts away
Memories of better days decay
In a field of forgotten dreams
An old car sits and slowly rusts

Once plenty of chrome, now dull and worn
Memories fade to nothing but dust
Each dead scratch tells a story
Of a past that's slipping away

Rust and remembrance, time takes its toll
On metal and memories, body and soul
What once was shiny, now corroded and old
But the stories it carries are pure gold

Rust and remembrance, hand in hand
Slowly claiming both machine and man
Leather seats cracked and torn
When lovers once sat close and warm

The radio's silent, no more tunes
To soundtrack those summer moons
But in the quiet, you can still hear
Echoes of laughter from yesteryear

It's rust and remembrance, time takes its toll
On metal and memories, body and soul
What once was shiny, now corroded and old
But the stories it carries are pure gold

Rust and remembrance, hand in hand
Slowly claiming both machine and man
Leaves grow through the floorboard holes
Where feet once tapped to rock and roll

The engine sees no more to roam
This field became its final home
But in its stillness, it still holds
The spirit of adventure's bones

Oh, rust and remembrance, time takes its toll
On metal and memories, body and soul
What once was shiny, now corroded and old
But the stories it carries are pure gold

Rust and remembrance, hand in hand
Slowly claiming both machine and man
Oh, rust and remembrance, hand in hand
Sometimes I sit on its rusted hood

Remembering times both bad and good
The journey's taken, the lessons learned
The bridges crossed, the rubber burned
In this decay, I clearly see

The passage of time, what it used to be
Oh, rust and remembrance, time takes its toll
On metal and memories, body and soul
What once was shiny, now corroded and old

But the stories it carries are pure gold
Rust and remembrance, hand in hand
Slowly claiming both machine and man
As I walk away, I understand

Rust and remembrance go hand in hand
In decay, there's a certain grace
Memories preserved in time and space
