Libertine

We are the rust worshipping the rain
Can I believe in anything?
I've got a doubters mind, but that don't give me the rope
It's not enough, so call the cavalry, the cavalry
God, give me some hope
'Cause I've been living in a deficit for so long
Don't turn the page 'cause your blood'll run cold
Parting the seas isn't free and it's getting old
You're gonna choke when you drink from the fountain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
I've got a band-aid on a bullet wound
If I refuse to break through, I can never lose
There's a trap at the peak of the mountain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
I'm so afraid of everything
I think my courage died, this is a slippy slope
So lock the cuffs because I'm powerless, so powerless
I just can't cope 'cause I've been living in a deficit
A libertine stole the keys
And drove this machine without me
Don't turn the page 'cause your blood'll run cold
Parting the seas isn't free and it's getting old
You're gonna choke when you drink from the fountain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
I've got a band-aid on a bullet wound
If I refuse to break through, I can never lose
There's a trap at the peak of the mountain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
A libertine stole the keys
And drove this machine without me
It's too much, but it's not enough
So cold, but I'm burning up
I'm trying to swim
But I'm treading water
It's unclear, but it's obvious
Three cheers for this emptiness
I'm trying to swim
Yeah, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
Don't turn the page 'cause your blood'll run cold
Parting the seas isn't free and it's getting old
You're gonna choke when you drink from the fountain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
We are the rust worshipping the rain
