Ruby / Still Breathing
If it's a matter of pride then that's alright
Because I've long since pissed away mine
It's always the same with you and me
The engineer and the machinery, respectively
Fix the failing parts you need of me
Discard the excess if necessary
Now I'm haunted by vivid dreams and memories
I'm getting ahead of things
Ben melts his ruby heart
A line born of mondegreen
Youth now back a life and a half
He's still in Calgary
And then there's me...
I acted regrettably
The best of both
Forgetting the worst of A&E
Whether it's photos of a willow tree
Or gifts from a trip that she took without me
I'm still splitting memories
And I'm still getting ahead of things
Ben melts his ruby heart
A line born of mondegreen
Youth now back a life and a half
He's still in Calgary
And then there's me...
I'm sick of you, I'm sick of me
Not casting aside the troubles we've seen
I had a love worth a life and a half
I gave it up for this
Just as Kane caved her stoney heart
And a day away by northern seas
But with a life fulfilled by another half
He's still breathing
And that's all we need
Because I've long since pissed away mine
It's always the same with you and me
The engineer and the machinery, respectively
Fix the failing parts you need of me
Discard the excess if necessary
Now I'm haunted by vivid dreams and memories
I'm getting ahead of things
Ben melts his ruby heart
A line born of mondegreen
Youth now back a life and a half
He's still in Calgary
And then there's me...
I acted regrettably
The best of both
Forgetting the worst of A&E
Whether it's photos of a willow tree
Or gifts from a trip that she took without me
I'm still splitting memories
And I'm still getting ahead of things
Ben melts his ruby heart
A line born of mondegreen
Youth now back a life and a half
He's still in Calgary
And then there's me...
I'm sick of you, I'm sick of me
Not casting aside the troubles we've seen
I had a love worth a life and a half
I gave it up for this
Just as Kane caved her stoney heart
And a day away by northern seas
But with a life fulfilled by another half
He's still breathing
And that's all we need
