Do do do doooo
Come on my little ruin won?t you open up and let us in?
Time has not been kind but you're still standing here
Leave a light on in your window, won?t you let me see a sign?
It?s gonna take more than smoke and mirrors now for me this time
Come on, my little sorrow, won?t you sing yourself a different song?
The melody that made you is now a worn-out sing-along
Everybody?s looking at you, but I can?t stand to watch
I?ve seen this scene come and go too much
And oh, how you struggle through the hours, way-yeah-eah
your sorrow leading the way, hay-yeah-eah
And as you stood there among the cowards you were letting them win
But I?m not gonna stand aside and watch them tear you up
no I?m not, cause you're better than they are and I can?t say it enough
that?s enough "what are you doing?"
Come on my little ruin won?t you build yourself back up again?
Won?t you take the time you were given, you promised it to yourself
You could stand among the best of them if you could hold your own
But no-one's gonna do it for you now, but you and you alone
And oh, how you struggle with your power, way-yeah-eah
And keep your back tight to the wall, hay-yeah-eah
And as you were counted among the cowards they didn?t see you at all
Now you're caught on a rising wave, and I can?t get you off
But I?m not gonna stand aside and watch them tear you up
No, I?m not, cause you're better than they are, you're better than they are
You're better than they are, you're better than they are
you're better than they are, and I can?t say it enough
Come on my little ruin won?t you tell me where the feeling?s gone?
There's nothing lost between us, you can come back anytime you want
