Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.
The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

[Verse 1] EAG I stumble through the wreckage D/F#E rusted from the rain AG There's nothing left to salvage D/F#E no one left to blame AG Among the broken mirrors D/F#E I don't look the same EGD/F#E I'm rusted from the rain EGD/F#E I'm rusted from the rain
[Verse 2] EAG Dissect me until my blood runs D/F#E down into the drain AG My bitter heart is pumping D/F#E oil into my veins AG I'm nothing but a tin man D/F#E don't feel any pain EGD/F#E I don't feel any pain EGD/F#E I don't feel any pain EGD/F#E I'm rusted from the rain
[Chorus 1] EAG Go on crush me like a flower D/F#E rusted from the rain AG Come on strip me of my power D/F#E beat me with your chains AG And if I'm the king of cowards D/F#E you're the queen of pain EGD/F#E I'm rusted from the rain EGD/F#E I'm rusted from the rain
