Men Of Rust Lyrics - Everon

There was a time when we were 

As close as hearts can be 

Your pain and fear, your dreams and hopes 

All that you shared with me 

I was just a child back then 

As I grew up I had to see 

Not all those wishes that we have 

Become reality 

In all those years of doing nothing 

But killing time 

Having lost my faith, my strength, my power 

Was my hardest crime... 

I know that you tried hard to save me 

When I was about to drown 

But your way of trying to help me up 

In fact just dragged me down 

You've put me in a golden cage 

All luxuries we shared 

You hoped I would feel safe and warm 

But in fact I just felt scared 

After all those years of doing nothing 

But killing time 

In the end I felt like a prisoner 

Of my image you designed... 

In a moment of rage I broke out of that cage 

Spread my wings and found I could fly 

In a moment of pain I broke free from the chain 

Much too long I had lived a lie 

In the end I just had too much 

Of the getting in and out of touch 

Of all that moving forth and moving back again 

Men of steel turn into men of rust 

Before they either bite the dust 

Or simply run away if they still can...
