[Verse 1]
You tell me that all metal rusts
If you wait long enough
And your eyes looked back
And art restores light

[Chorus]
But I was already rusted through
I tried to love you
I tried to love you
I tried

[Verse 2]
Saw the sun coming up
Over the tidewater ruts
Like I had not done enough
To try and change our live

[Chorus]
But I was already rusted shut
I tried to love you
I tried to love you
I tried to love you

[Outro]
(But I was already rusted through)
I tried to love you
(Yeah I was already rusted through)
I tried to love you
(But I was already rusted through)
I tried to love you
(But I was already rusted through)
I tried to love you
(But I was already rusted through)
I tried to love you
