You lean against a painted wall
The midnight air begins to fall
Your chain is frozen in the grime
You're just a passenger of time
Oh you're rusting in the glow
Where the heavy currents flow
Silver paint turns into gold
A lonely story left untold
The motel carpet smells of pine
You're waiting for a lucky sign
The asphalt shimmers like a lake
A little bend before you break
Oh you're rusting in the glow
Where the heavy currents flow
Silver paint turns into gold
A lonely story left untold
The meter's running in my head
I see the things you never said
A flat tire on a gravel road
You're carrying a heavy load
Oh you're rusting in the glow
Where the heavy currents flow
Silver paint turns into gold
A lonely story left untold
The oil drips on the concrete floor
You don't go knocking at the door
Just a ghost in a metal frame
Playing a losing kind of game
The morning wind is cold and grey
Another fare is on the way
You're just a relic in the lot
The only thing that time forgot
Oh you're rusting in the glow
Where the heavy currents flow
Silver paint turns into gold
A lonely story left untold
Ride it slow now
Just let it go
Rusting in the glow
