Ruins I

[Verse 1]

Sweet surrender comes

After the dawn

We knew it was over long before

Don't look over your shoulder as you go

Dreams we made like grains of sand

You built me up to tear me down

Awakenin' on broken ground

Don't look back for me, can't save you now

[Chorus]

It's a cold, cold light

We'll never be the same again

I was blind

But now I'm seeing through it

It's a cold, cold light

You'll never see me again

You and I

We lie in ruins

[Verse 2]

Wavin' your white flag through the smoke

You tell me you want me, I know you don't

Leave it behind, give up the ghost

Don't look over your shoulder as you go

[Pre-Chorus]

So how long have you known?

When you were beside me, was I alone?

So how long have you known?

How I see you now, it's cold

[Chorus]

It's a cold, cold light

We'll never be the same again

I was blind

But now I'm seeing through it

It's a cold, cold light

You'll never see me again

You and I

We lie in ruins

[Bridge]

Ruins, ruins, ruins

We'll never be the same again

Ruins, ruins, ruins

We'll never be the same again

Ruins, ruins, ruins

We'll never the same again

You and I

We lie in ruins

[Outro]

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
