- Chrome Don't Rust, It Just Forgets

Intro Kneel down. The pump's been dry for years.

Verse 1 A broken Christ hologram in the eaves Flickers where the neon used to be His open hand still glows above the pumps But the wound don't read no more to me Come sit in the pew I made from a truck seat Bring what's left of you and I'll begin They sold you a body that don't bleed And called the emptiness a way to win

Pre-Chorus I have washed the deathless clean I have buried what won't die Every soul this town rebuilt Traded weeping for the shine

Chorus Chrome don't rust, it just forgets Wears your grief like a borrowed coat Shines the same the day it forgets her name And it never once knows what it lost You can swap the hand, buy a colder one But not the hand that pulled the gun Chrome don't rust, it just forgets

Verse 2 Rich man died four times and can't recall Which face was the one his mother kissed He uploads a smile to the billboard wall And forgets there was a thing he missed I kept my one death like a wedding band Cold against the bone where it belongs A conscience is the one thing won't upload The town can wipe your face, not what you've done

Pre-Chorus I have washed the deathless clean I have buried what won't die Every soul this town rebuilt Traded weeping for the shine

Chorus Chrome don't rust, it just forgets Wears your grief like a borrowed coat Shines the same the day it forgets her name And it never once knows what it lost You can swap the hand, buy a colder one But not the hand that pulled the gun Chrome don't rust, it just forgets

Outro Stand up now. The tank won't fill. The hand remembers. The chrome never will. It just forgets. It just forgets.
