“Rust” briefly compares worlds between Twin Shadow and his lover, as he tries to rationalize why the relationship has become tarnished.
The lyrics describe George Lewis Jr. being raised and escaping violence in the Dominican Republic in comparison to someone who presumably had it all from the start...
[Verse]
I was born on the islands
Parents tryna get away from a little bit of violence
Moved to the golf course
Four kids, tryna make the most
You're a child in the badlands
Your mother tried to get just a little bit of silence
Moved from the city
Famous living, privilege given
Maybe our hearts don't beat the same
I don't expect them to be that way
[Chorus]
We are precious metals
Bruised petals
Called in the echos of new loves mistrust
Pulling you closer now
But your fingers are closed
We are rare precious metals
Starting to rust, starting to rust

From a track-by-track interview with NYLON:
When two people meet, and they are too fucked-up for each other, too different, but jump in anyway.
— George Lewis Jr.
