Slowly Rust Lyrics by Daveit Ferris

Painting Monsters On The Floorboards

0

[Verse 1]
Do you want to slow down?
But salt on our roads now
Your mouth can't decide
And your eyes can't hide your doubt
Do you pace the floorboards
Thinking of the words
That validate this and stop every kiss
From starting

[Chorus]
You make my heart stop beating
If you keep on sleeping
Through this hurricane we face
Bleeding dust we both know
We'll slowly rust

[Verse 2]
Do you feel so jaded?
'Cause your skin looks faded
You drive with no plan
Into the distance
For space
Are those tears theatric
Or are you just lovesick?
Your signals are blurred
And none of my words mean something

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't want to spill what I'm thinking
I don't want to paint what I see
I don't want to voice all these feelings
But I don't want your body to leave

[Chorus]
You make my heart stop beating
If you keep on sleeping
Through this hurricane we face
Bleeding dust we both know
We'll slowly rust

[Outro]
This back up generator feels
The wind has faded from our sills
You held a knife to the rope that kept our bodies in this boat
Suitcases swallow your clothes up
I make new plans to find true love
This house is quiet but my heart beats so loudly in the dark
