Rust and Regret
Teemuth
Lyrics
Intro
"So there I am, soaking in the rain,
Drowning in heartbreak and a garage full of pain." (Oh, it’s poetic)
Verse
Rusty romance, like your vintage bike,
Swore you’d fix it, yeah, “any day,” right? (Sure!)
Now I’m out here, drowning in the drizzle,
While your promises fizzle like grease on a griddle
Doomscrollin’ nights got me losin’ my mind,
Watchin’ your timeline, tryna rewind
Rain hits my face like a passive-aggressive text,
“Hey, remember love? Yeah, it’s wrecked” (Crash!)
Your garage door’s locked, but my shame’s wide open,
Drippin’ with regret like my plans you’ve broken
Heart’s a jalopy, squeakin’ down the lane,
But at least this rust matches my emotional chain (Clink!)
(My emotional chain!)
Pre-Chorus
Standing in the rain, drowning in lies,
Rust in my veins, love oxidized (Oxidized!)
Yeah you heard right (Oxidized!)
Chorus
Rust and regret, I’m fallin’ apart,
You left me corroded, a scrapyard heart (Scrap it!)
Tears mix with rain, yeah, it’s all the same,
But at least my pain’s got a catchy name (Rust!)
(Got a catchy name)
(You Heard?)
(Rust, Rust)
(RUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Verse
You said I’d shine, like chrome on a wheel,
But all I got was a flat and a raw deal (Pop!)
Your love’s a toolset, missin’ all the parts,
While I’m duct-tapin’ together my broken heart
Garage smells like oil and unkept dreams,
A mechanic for love? You’re worse than it seems
You gave me false hope and a tank on “E,”
Now I’m stuck in reverse, and you’re ridin’ free
Every raindrop’s a reminder I stayed too long,
Waiting for a spark where the engine’s gone (Dead!)
But hey, when my heart crumbles into dust,
At least I’ll sell the scraps for coffee and trust (Latte, please!)
Pre-Chorus
Standing in the rain, drowning in lies,
Rust in my veins, love oxidized (Oxidized!)
Yeah you heard right (Oxidized!)
Chorus
Rust and regret, I’m fallin’ apart,
You left me corroded, a scrapyard heart (Scrap it!)
Tears mix with rain, yeah, it’s all the same,
But at least my pain’s got a catchy name (Rust!)
(Got a catchy name)
(You Heard?)
(Rust, Rust)
(RUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Outro
"Guess I’ll take these rusty pieces, sell ‘em for scrap.
(Smooth move, baby!)
