Rusted from the Rain

About Rusted from the Rain

"Rusted from the Rain" is the first official single by Billy Talent off their album, Billy Talent III. It was released on May 19, 2009. Lead singer Ben Kowalewicz has said that the song is very "tin man-esque" and evolved from an "epic Soundgarden-like riff". The lyrics are about marital breakdown, Kowalewicz told Kerrang!: "Nowadays, I'm seeing a lot of people who got married young are now getting divorced. It seems to be a new fad. Divorce is the new black." The song was nominated for Single of the Year at the 2010 Juno Awards, but lost to Michael Bublé's "Haven't Met You Yet". The band's cover of John Lennon's classic song "Cold Turkey", was released on the CD single, on June 30, 2009. more »

I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain
There's nothing left to salvage, no one left to blame
Among the broken mirrors, I don't look the same
I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

Dissect me 'till my blood runs down into the drain
My bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins
I'm nothing but a tin man, don't feel any pain
I don't feel any pain, I'm rusted from the rain

Go on, crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain
Come on strip me of my powers, beat me with your chains
And if I'm the King of cowards, you're the Queen of pain
I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

You hung me like a picture, now I'm just a frame
I used to be a lap dog, now I'm just a stray
Shackled in a graveyard, left here to decay
Left here to decay, left here to decay
I'm rusted from the rain

Go on, crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain
Come on strip me of my powers, beat me with your chains
And if I'm the King of cowards, you're the Queen of pain
I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain

Go on, crush me like a flower, rusted from the rain
Come on strip me of my powers, beat me with your chains
And if I'm the King of cowards, you're the Queen of pain
I'm rusted from the rain, I'm rusted from the rain
