Rusty
Rusty Echoes: A Tale of Broken Defiance and Dark Secrets
Lyrics
Where we found you again at last
Reencountering someone after a period of separation.
A lonely suit just wasted away
Describing a person in a neglected and forlorn state.
Until I knew that you’d given to
Realizing that the person has given a part of themselves to the speaker.
A piece of me, I’ll never be free
Expressing the burden of carrying that shared experience, preventing freedom.
Fields of Violets, running around my mind
Recalling memories or thoughts symbolized by fields of violets.
Silent violence happens time after time
Highlighting repeated instances of subtle harm or conflict.
Now you’re rusty and you fucked It
Suggesting deterioration or decline, possibly in a relationship.
We had to leave momentarily
Leaving a situation temporarily.
It’s all a show, I let you go
Acknowledging that everything is a facade, deciding to let go.
And then I knew if I’d helped you
Recognizing the consequences of helping the person.
I’d let this die and cleanse my life
Choosing to let go of the negative influence and start anew.
Fields of Violets, running around my mind
Reiterating the persistence of memories or thoughts symbolized by violets.
Silent violence happens time after time
Reinforcing the theme of recurring subtle violence.
Now you’re rusty and you fucked It
Reemphasizing the deterioration or decline mentioned earlier.
So start a riot and bury your demise
Suggesting rebellion and the burial of a downfall.
From pure excitement to oceans of black and white
Describing a transition from excitement to a stark reality.
A broken nihilist that couldn’t find the time
Characterizing a person as a broken nihilist with time constraints.
Your dark defiance just wont let me go
Expressing the persistent nature of a dark and rebellious attitude.
Trying to figure it out, what I’m thinking about
Expressing confusion and the need to understand thoughts.
While you shut your mouth, now settle down
Advising someone to be quiet and calm down.
(Four walls are never enough too bold to ever take hold)
Suggesting that confinement within four walls is insufficient and too bold to grasp.
Why’d you make it seem like you’ve got to be Another broken queen in the face if the crown
Criticizing someone for pretending to be a broken queen for attention.
(Now can we talk about us, so kind of you to turn up)
Inviting a discussion about the relationship.
Like a grain of sand in the palm of your hand Everything turns back and then comes around
Comparing life's cycles to a grain of sand in the palm of one's hand.
(What now? I’ve heard it all, I hoped that you wouldn’t call)
Expressing a feeling of being overwhelmed by information and anticipating a call.
Trying to figure it out, what I’m thinking about
Reiterating the need to understand thoughts while advising silence.
While you shut your mouth, now settle down
Repeating the advice to settle down and be calm.
