Steal Reserve - Rust Lyrics

I've been here and there and everywhere, and somewhere in between
Dreams turn into nightmares after all the shit I've seen
When darkness is upon you open up and let it in
Cause when the lights go out that's when the struggle will begin
When I was born it rained for days, and they told me it was luck
Well I left home at 17 and since then I've been stuck
I wondered through the streets, and all the cities look the same
When you're lying in the gutters trying to cope with all the shame
It's hard to count your blessings when you're lying in the dust
Im 21 years old and I've began collecting rust
I never understood it 'cause when push has come to shove
No one's ever loyal when they're watching from above
Well I had to learn to steal 'cause I had nothing to eat
I had to learn to fight 'cause I was living on the streets
And I was forced to hate because my heart had seen defeat
But I always dreamed of you sleeping on the cold concrete
I turned 23 in prison I can honestly admit
Living on the insides better than out on the street
And I hold on to a memory of how I used to feel
Before the world had taken from me all that she could steal
It's hard to count your blessings when you're lying in the dust
Im 23 years old and there is no one I can trust
I never understood it 'cause when push has come to shove
No one's ever loyal when they're watching from above
It's hard to count your blessings when you're lying in the dust
Im 23 years old and I've got no one left to trust
I never understood it 'cause when push has come to shove
No one's ever loyal when they're watching from above
