Ruins

The smell of ashes was so strong
The time and place were really wrong
Like an off key lousy song

What is done can't be undone
By tomorrow we'll be gone
We can linger for a while
To stare at the sun

The sun is setting over the ruins
The smoking ruins of could have beens
Of yesterday's decayed illusions
And disintegrated dreams
The decomposed and ugly corpses
Of wishes and promises rot in the sun
"No future" is written on the walls of the burnt houses
But what is done can't be undone

The taste of failure on our lips
The future at our fingertips
In our own apocalypse

What is done can't be undone
In a moment we'll be gone
Let us linger for the last time
To stare at the sun

The sun is setting over the ruins
The smoking ruins of could have beens
Of yesterday's decayed illusions
And disintegrated dreams
The decomposed and ugly corpses
Of wishes and promises rot in the sun
"No future" is written on the walls of the burnt houses
But what is done can't be undone

The sun is setting over the ruins
Decrepit prospects and wasted potentials
Dilapidated and wrecked intentions
Corroded debris in the shape of things to come
The ancient relics of hope and faith
Deteriorate under the sun
We fall apart as we dance and we sing "This Corrosion"
'Cause what is done can't be undone

Welcome to the ruins
Welcome to the ruins
Celebrate the decay
Welcome to the ruins
Welcome to the ruins
Celebrate the decay
