Lyrics

Wet and Rusting

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.

I made you a present, you'll never expect it

And when you unravel the secret will travel

It's hard to take risks with a pessimist

I hope that this shaking will help us awaken

Separated by skin 'til we let ourselves in

It's hard to take risks with a pessimist

It's hard to take risks

I hope one will burn me, I know you'll desert me

(This is the closest I've come to touching you the way I want)

The hope can be painful, I'll try to be faithful

(It's hard to take risks)
