Ruins - Live

Lyrics

Today I climb the highest mountain I have ever climbed
 And I turn to look at ruins I had left behind
 And you, where were you so far removed from any truth
 I lost you, didn't I? First I think I lost myself
 
 Children, then and forever locked in a memory
 Olden that mirror searchin' for some kind of certainty
 That you were just the same as everyone but you were wrong
 And it hurt you, didn't it? All you couldn't be
 ♪
 Ruins
 Ooh
 
 Ruins
 Ooh
 I tried to hold on to some kind of dignity
 Too long I waded through a vast and endless sea
 Thinking I could find the secret there within
 But I gave up, didn't I seem the only way?
 ♪
 Ruins, all the things we built assured that they would last
 Ending months ticket stubs, and written notes and photographs
 Where are you and here somewhere I cannot go?
 I'm sorry, I am, but I don't take it back
 And in the night I hear your voice
 Sometimes but it quickly passes
 In dreams I saw what I had thought
 Could be some kind of answer
 You try and try and try until you cannot try no more
 Captured in our own
 Ruins
 Ooh
 Ruins
 Ooh
 ♪
 Ruins
 Ooh

 Ruins
