Carnival of Rust

My all-time favorite song: Carnival of Rust by Poets of the Fall.


Do you breathe the name of your saviour in your hour of need
And taste the blame, if the flavor should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation, and ill will, till' you cannot lie still
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil come closing in for a kill

Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust

It's all a game, avoiding failure, when true colors will bleed
All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need
I lust for after no disaster can touch, touch us anymore
And more than ever, I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before

Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the world is burning
Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning



As many of my friends know, I wouldn't be myself if I do not post this song. It was love at first sound for me, and I can say that it is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard. Beautiful music, amazing lyrics, and perfect voice, this song is utter perfection. So, yeah, this is just my quick shout-out to these wonderful musicians. I am officially in love with the song.
