Liner notes:
Bitterness is like rust, once it gets into you, it's hard to get rid of. Like swallowing poison yourself and hoping the other person will die. It can eat you up from the inside but even if it takes everything you still have the choice to take a better path based on forgiveness and love.

Words:
I swallowed poison and I thought you’d waste away
I kept the anger and drunk my rage
You’ve got to nurse the hurt or let it go
Move on in the sunrise glow
 
We’re rusted painted faces
We’re dust in wasted places
 
We rust
The sunlight fades and darkens the prisons we made
When rust takes everything
But you can embrace your own wave
 
I gave forgiveness should have saved it all for me
I wrote you letters from self-made jails
You must let heartache fly not let it grow
Come on let your love light flow
 
We’re rusted painted faces
We’re dust in wasted places
 
We rust
The sunlight fades and darkens the prisons we made
When rust takes everything
But you can embrace your own wave
We rust
We rust
We rust

Inspired by the early nineties music of Brad, Satchel, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth, Slint and Stone Temple Pilots - to name a few - plus the soulful voice of the massively underrated, and much missed, Shawn Smith. 

Rocking and rolling with an independent spirit. Keep on keeping on.
