From the 1970s industry in the north of England was virtually wiped out, coal mines were closed, steel works shut down, leaving communities desolated with only the rusting remains of their past as memorials to their pasts.
Kingdom of Rust
Lyrics
I hear a sound, a sound above my head
Distant sound of thunder, moving out on the moor
Blackbirds flew in and to the cooling towers
I'll pack my bags
Thinking of one of those hours
With you, waiting for you
My God, it takes an ocean of trust
In the kingdom of rust
I long to feel some beauty in my heart
As I go searching, right to the start
The road back to Preston
Was covered all in snow
As I went looking for that stolen heart
For you, waiting for you
My God, it takes an ocean of trust
Takes an effort, it does
My God, it takes an ocean of trust
It's in the kingdom of rust
Oh, in the kingdom of rust
I long to feel that wince in my heart
As I went looking
I couldn't stop
Now I'm waiting for you
Oh, yes, it does
I know it takes an ocean of trust
In the kingdom of rust
