Rattling Rust

(album: Time Insensitive Material - 2009)

Seventeen
Life went fast and it passed me by
And I figured out you make it on your own
I had no one
No direction in front of me
I kept looking back
Remembering what it was
Remembering how it was

And everything that's left of me has gone
And everything that's left of me has gone to you
There's nothing left of me

I can't believe
I can't believe
I can't believe this is how it ends
I lost you as a friend
And I'm moving on and on and on to bigger dreams
It's just the way I planned
And that's the way it is

Suddened by the sound of rust and I was away
Afraid of anyone, anyone with heart
I know someday
I'll break these chains and be free again
I need something new
I need a better world
A life away from you

And everything that's left of me has gone
And everything that's left of me has gone to you
There's nothing left of me

I can't believe
I can't believe
I can't believe this is how it ends
I lost you as a friend
And I'm moving on and on and on to bigger dreams
It's just the way I planned
And that's the way it is

Going nowhere locked inside this bedroom
With this mattress on the floor I try and sleep
Imagine where I wake up what will find me
Staring at me with that blank look on your face

And I followed you
And I can't believe this is how it ends
I lost you as a friend
And I'm moving on and on and on to bigger dreams
It's just the way I planned
And that's the way it is

And if I had a choice I'd ask for more
If I had a choice I'd ask for more
