Track Insight / Lyrics
Parched earth grips, ancient metal binds
Forgotten battles, rusty scars within
Summer skews the fading day, crimson dusk descends
A hulk of iron, twisted, leaning, dry as bone
Caked with grime and memories, weathered, worn
Eyes of bolts, a grimace, witness to the torn
In my solitude I dream of running, free
Of dripping with vitality, unchained, new
But rust holds fast, corroding thoughts of flight
My duty's to remain, steadfast through the night
I'm the rusty tyrant, sentinel of decay
Guarding shadows in the twilight gray
A sentinel of iron, faithful, unyielding still
My vigil endures, through noxious city chill
Neon specters dance, the night's electric sigh
A cacophony of vice, the metropolis's cry
But I remain unmoved, apathetic to sin
A sanctuary for secrets locked within
In my solitude I dream of running, free
Of dripping with vitality, unchained, new
But rust holds fast, corroding thoughts of flight
My duty's to remain, steadfast through the night
I'm the rusty tyrant, sentinel of decay
Guarding shadows in the twilight gray
A sentinel of iron, faithful, unyielding still
My vigil endures, through noxious city chill
To mortals I am just a relic, a grim gray hulk
But in my silence, stories come to life, unkulk
The whispers of despair, the stains of former lives
All absorbed, all corroded by the city's cruel vice
I'm the rusty tyrant, unbroken, unsound
Iron stalwart, unwavering, sentinel profound
Dusk gives way to midnight, neon lights ablaze
My duty's to endure, as the city never fades
Parched earth grips, ancient metal binds
Forgotten battles, rusty scars within
So rest, city dreamers, revel in the night
The rusty tyrant watches on, iron and alight.
