Verse 1

I stumble through the wreckage,

rusted from the rain

 There's nothing left to salvage,

no one left to blame

 Among the broken mirrors,

I don't look the same

I'm rusted from the rain,

I'm rusted from the rain

Verse 2

Dissect me until my blood runs

down into the drain

 My bitter heart is pumping

oil into my veins

 I'm nothing but a tin man,

don't feel any pain

I don't feel any pain,

I don't feel any pain

I'm rusted from the rain

Chorus 1

Go on crush me like a flower,

rusted from the rain

 Come on, strip me of my power,

beat me with your chains

 And if I'm the king of cowards,

you're the queen of pain

I'm rusted from the rain,

I'm rusted from the rain

[The rest of the song goes with the same chords]

You hung me like a picture, now I'm just a frame

I used to be your lap dog, now I'm just a stray

Shackled in a graveyard, left here to decay

Left here to decay, left here to decay

I'm rusted from the rain

Go on crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain

Come on, strip me of my power, beat me with your chains

And if I'm the king of cowards, you're the queen of pain

I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

I'm rusted from the rain

Go on crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain

Come on, strip me of my power, beat me with your chains

And if I'm the king of cowards, you're the queen of pain

I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

Go on crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain

Come on, strip me of my power, beat me with your chains

And if I'm the king of cowards, you're the queen of pain

I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

The sun will shine again, I'm rusted from the rain

I'm rusted from the rain, the sun will shine again

I'm rusted from the rain

End on E
