Ruins
Heaven knows how hard I've tried
To hold you close while you cast me aside
It's the month of October and nothing has changed
You're still hungover with that look on your face
It's a long way down, ain't that what you say?
And the only way we're ever gonna get up
Is if we smile like we don't really care what's lost along the way
You say that you can't see the light
And I pray that you make up your mind
Won't you stop what you're doing and build me a shrine
Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time?
Kiss me twice and the windows shake
I'm weary-eyed and you're always running late
Don't leave me lying here in this rubble and dust
All alone and crying trying to crawl back up
And it's a long way down, ain't that what you say?
And the only way we're ever gonna get up
Is if we smile like we don't really care what's lost along the way
You say that you can't see the light
And I pray that you make up your mind
Won't you stop what you're doing and build me a shrine
Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time?
To hold you close while you cast me aside
It's the month of October and nothing has changed
You're still hungover with that look on your face
It's a long way down, ain't that what you say?
And the only way we're ever gonna get up
Is if we smile like we don't really care what's lost along the way
You say that you can't see the light
And I pray that you make up your mind
Won't you stop what you're doing and build me a shrine
Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time?
Kiss me twice and the windows shake
I'm weary-eyed and you're always running late
Don't leave me lying here in this rubble and dust
All alone and crying trying to crawl back up
And it's a long way down, ain't that what you say?
And the only way we're ever gonna get up
Is if we smile like we don't really care what's lost along the way
You say that you can't see the light
And I pray that you make up your mind
Won't you stop what you're doing and build me a shrine
Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time?
