Ruins Lyrics

Streets I tread have lost their glitter

Never seen the trees so withered

there's stars under that cloud of dust

glows under that shroud of rust

I can't see, but I can trust



Can't move forward on my knees

I was pulled before you gave the lead

Excuses all disintegrate

Out of nothing I create

Those distant hopes only make us wait



Into the ruins I go

Into the ruins I go

Not looking at the rubble

I'm looking for the gold



Always longed to hold the lonely

Always longed to feed the hungry

Always longed to be light of the world

Always longed to be a cure

long to be secure

Spin fast enough

you come out of the blur



Into the ruins I go

Into the ruins I go

Not looking at the rubble

I'm looking for the gold



It's a way I've never gone

It's a way I'd never choose

But I'll go there with you
