Seinabo Sey – Ruin lyrics

[Verse 1]
I escaped you right on time
Can't be partners in this crime
Starts shut down the remanence of my dream
Kissed like on a silver screen
Cotton fields and beauty queens
Nothing here was ever as it seemed

[Verse 2]
Time has come to leave the line
I can't sign your pledge this time
Madness spread acress the land as we
Saw the devil had a trick
We have clothes and crucifix
He who stands for nothing, falls alone

[Pre-Chorus]
You tighten the rope
Watch the seasons grow
You have made it clear
Nothing for me here
Said to each his own
We all stand alone
I'm just a brick
In you ruin of love

[Chorus]
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love

[Verse 3]
We have played those strings attached
Out of key we didn't last
Sunset in our never ending scene
I held on to broken thoughts
Love is but a poisoned dart
Drenched in kerosene

[Pre-Chorus]
You tighten the rope
Watch the seasons grow
You have made it clear
Nothing for me here
Said to each his own
We all stand alone
I'm just a brick
In you ruin of love

[Chorus]
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love

[Outro]
There's nothing more I need to say
There's nothing more I need to say
I'll forgive you but it's not that day
There's nothing more I need to say
There's nothing more I need to say
I'll forgive you but it's not that day
