Ruins Lyrics


Claire Richards Ruins

[Verse 1]
All my friends said you're no good
You let me down just like they knew you would
But you put these stars in my eyes
I won't apologize for you no more
We shed a battle and we've lost this war
But if I could save you, I'd try

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I just can't watch you get deeper
If you're going down, I'll go with ya
Do it to myself, I do it to myself

[Chorus]
So shame on me
I guess it's my fault for wanting so hard to believe
That something so dangerous could be beautiful underneath
I couldn't see the damage you were doing
When we were lying in the ruins
So shame on me

[Verse 2]
It's in my breath, in mocha teeth
The joke's on me just like it's always been
'Cause I take you back every time and I know
I should take my own advice
I've been a fool since you fooled me twice
More than a million lies

[Pre-Chorus]
But hiding it just makes it harder
The fading lights run my mascara
Do it to myself, I do it to myself

[Chorus]
So shame on me
I guess it's my fault for wanting so hard to believe
That something so dangerous could be beautiful underneath
I couldn't see the damage you were doing
When we were lying in the ruins
So shame on me

[Bridge]
I'm tired of being reckless
And caught up in the wreckage of us
Oh, sick of being wasted
I'm sick and now you're wasting my love

[Chorus]
So shame on me
I guess it's my fault for wanting so hard to believe
That something so dangerous could be beautiful underneath
I couldn't see the damage you were doing
When we were lying in the ruins
So shame on me
I guess it's my fault for wanting so hard to believe
That something so dangerous could be beautiful underneath
I couldn't see the damage you were doing
When we were lying in the ruins
So shame on me
