Spencer Sanders - Rust Lyrics

No more letting my guard down
No more faith to no end
No more putting out fires for the liars
Who pretend they're my friends
No more saying I'm sorry
No more trying to prove
That I'm not the extra spare
You just don't know how to care like I do

Oh, and I say it's not enough
To pretend that we're golden-we're not
You showed me that behind your shine there's rust
Oh, and I say it's not too late
To admit that you made a mistake
Time can erase and I can place my trust
In you

So there's no going back now
So you've written me out
So it's time to cut ties, say goodbyes
Learn how to live without
No remedial treatment
There's no miracle cure
No forgiveness for your crime
I'll forget I called you mine someday, I'm sure

Oh, and I say it's not enough
To pretend that we're golden or not
You showed me that behind your shine there's rust
Oh, and I say it's not too late
To admit that you made a mistake
Time can erase and I can place my trust

Just like that old music box I bought for you back in Austin
You left it in the rain one night, it never played the same
Rusted tines, corroded cogs-the dance is done, the music stopped
You left me in the rain that night, hoping in vain
You broke me into pieces, shattered my resolve
What's the use in fixing things you never took care of
I'll head back on the highway, take the road out west
Let the Sunset bring me closure, but I won't forget

Oh, and I say it's not enough
To pretend that we're golden or not
You showed me that behind your shine there's rust
Oh, and I say it's far too late
To admit that you made a mistake
Time can erase but I won't place my trust
In you
