Mirror of Rust

Liner Notes

This came from using the LyriCloud in the Muse page. I started writing it last night while watching the Grammys and finished this morning. Again, please feel free to demo this one if it speaks to you. #needsmusic #needscollab #LyriCloud #lyricsonly

Lyrics

V
I trusted the weight of your words
But the facts got lost in the dust
Every promise that we welded tight
It all rusts, it just rusts…

V
You talked, and I believed too much
But your voice, was a misleading light
I tried hard to hold onto the truth
The shadows only blurred my sight

CH
Now the mirror stares back at me
Cracked and cloudy, I struggle to see
This betrayed reflection fades away
Like a love I could not erase

V
Cast your doubts like stones
Every glance still hurts my bones
I was afraid, but stood my ground
While the kingdom tumbled down

BR
Can you tell I’m reconciled?
No deceiving, no disguise
Your protection was a cage
And I will burn away that page

CH
Now the mirror stares back at me
Cracked and cloudy, I struggle to see
This betrayed reflection fades away
Like a love I could not erase

OUTRO
What we wielded, is now undone
That war we fought, but never won
