[Intro]
Feedback screaming through the wire,
Black smoke choir, gasoline fire.
Teeth in the dark, boots on the floor,
Kick in the teeth of the mercy door.
[Verse 1]
I woke up under red streetlight,
With a curse in my mouth and a fistful of night.
Concrete halo, cracked and bent,
Paid my sins with the blood I spent.
Every bell in the city rings dead,
Every saint got a price on their head.
I don’t bow, I don’t break, I don’t kneel,
I sharpen my name on rusted steel.
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up till the rafters split,
Burn the wires, make the speaker spit.
No forgiveness, no clean escape,
Just blackened lungs and a jaw unchained.
[Chorus]
I am the rust saint!
I am the scar!
I am the scream from a throat full of tar!
I am the bad blood!
I am the spark!
I am the thing that crawls out of the dark!
Turn me loose, let the walls cave in,
I was born with the noise beneath my skin!
[Verse 2]
Drums hit fast like a nail-gun prayer,
Guitar cuts teeth through the dead night air.
Bassline crawling like a beast in chains,
Synths drip venom through the windowpanes.
I got no crown, got no throne,
Just a dead-end heart made of brick and bone.
If heaven is clean, then I’ll stay below,
Where the wild ones rot and the wild ones grow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up till the rafters split,
Burn the wires, make the speaker spit.
No forgiveness, no clean escape,
Just blackened lungs and a jaw unchained.
[Chorus]
I am the rust saint!
I am the scar!
I am the scream from a throat full of tar!
I am the bad blood!
I am the spark!
I am the thing that crawls out of the dark!
Turn me loose, let the walls cave in,
I was born with the noise beneath my skin!
[Breakdown]
Static crown.
Broken vow.
Blackened tongue.
Scream it now.
No halo.
No master.
No mercy.
Faster.
Faster.
FASTER.
[Bridge]
Drag me through fire, I’ll come back grinning.
Cut out my name, I’ll keep on singing.
Bury my voice in a shallow grave,
I’ll haunt the speakers from inside the stage.
[Final Chorus]
I am the rust saint!
I am the scar!
I am the scream from a throat full of tar!
I am the bad blood!
I am the spark!
I am the thing that crawls out of the dark!
Turn me loose, let the walls cave in,
I was born with the noise beneath my skin!
[Outro]
Feedback screaming through the wire,
Black smoke choir, gasoline fire.
No halo.
No master.
No mercy.
Faster.
