about

This is about a fella named Rusty Blade. He gets caught/trapped by a voodoo with down in the swamp. Thing is see - even though she's gonna skin him and eat him - put curses on him - stick pins in a voodoo doll that looks like him - all this stuff - he still thinks she's hot and falls in love with her. It's the story of falling in love with the bad and terrible. Like an infection from getting cut with a rusty blade that won't go away - it just stings.

If you'll buy that - I've got some...

lyrics

Rusty Blade

80 braids and the snakes are alive
40 candles light the dark still hive
My hands are tied and they ain’t comin’ loose
She’s got a mini-me that’s fit for a noose

Eyes have jaded glow
I try to run but there’s nowhere to go

It’s like getting cut with a rusty blade
That voodoo magic that never fades
Those murky waters makes it hard to see
I feel the sting of a jagged edge rusty blade

I don’t remember how I ended up here
She must’ve hit with her potions and tears
She’s got a leg up on the frog’s that don’t hide
She takes a rattlesnake that’s twice her size

I kinda like her show
There’s no way she can ever know

It’s like getting cut with a rusty blade
That voodoo magic that never fades
Those murky waters makes it hard to see
I feel the sting of a jagged edge rusty blade

I’m never goin’ home
I’m stuck to ride in these tails & bones

It’s like getting cut with a rusty blade
That voodoo magic it never fades
Those murky waters makes it hard to see
I feel the sting of a jagged edge rusty blade

It’s like getting cut with a rusty blade
That voodoo magic that never fades
Those murky waters makes it hard to see
I feel the sting of a jagged edge rusty blade
