Rusted

from Soul Erosion by Blistered

	/

lyrics

I'll wipe my mind of the memories
I will destroy your legacy
Page by page cast into the raging fires of contempt
I await the day when your flesh and earth become one
And I will be there, vindicated

With eyes shut tight as a hero you are venerated
Standing upon this pedestal built on our backs
I never saw the real you
I never saw your flaws
I never saw the rust and rot behind your thin veneer

Lightning strikes and sets fire to your facade
Your porcelain beauty cracks and breaks
Your vanity bears weight no longer
I cast you down
Your power is denied

Your soul is rusted
Your guts are rotten

I weep for the time I wasted
Believing you were a hero
Hours, Days, Weeks, and Months
Pissed away

I tear down statues in your image
I crush them now beneath my feet
