Lyrics
Rusted Nail
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You want someone to blame
The one who drives the rusted nail
But who’s left will never care
Pretending becomes a chore
All you search for, a little piece of mind
Too far, too deep, the two faced smile
So lost, you feel, I know
Wide awake but still asleep
Always a stranger in the crowd
Wide awake, always a stranger in the crowd
Just this once
Listen to the words I say
If you want, I will
I’m there until the end of time
Leave the doomed behind
Search with different light
You were trying to remember
But it’s all make believe
You are, you are, you are
(Wide awake but still asleep)
Wide awake but still asleep
Always a stranger in the crowd
Just this once
Listen to the words I say
If you want, I will
I’m there until the end of time
Just this once
Listen to the words I say
If you want, I’m there
Just this once
Listen to the words I say
If you want, I will
I’m there until the end of time
