Ruin Lyrics

Welcome

This is what's left of my heart

I know you've wanted in here for years

So welcome

Sit in my chair, look at my art

Never mind the flame-licked drapes or shattered chandelier

Kick off your shoes

Stay awhile and sing the blues with me

But before you do

Heed my warning

I'm a ruin

I only haunt this heart

I would give my soul, but it's already gone

I will have you because I'm lonely

But I will use you up, and make a ruin of you

Listen

You can't clean up this place

I mean, I'll let you try if you want to

But listen, you have a beautiful face

It's not the one I want, but I can make due

Go hang your coat

Stay awhile and tell a joke for me

Make yourself at home

But I will say I told you so

I'm a ruin

I only haunt this heart

I would give you my soul, but it's already gone

I will have you if you ask me

But I will use you up, and make a ruin of you

You don't have to live like this

You deserve every happiness I once knew

Joy, commitment

With your body to thee worship

Children, and years of bliss

For me there will be no more bells

I am just a shell

And this is my living hell

I'm a ruin

I only haunt this heart

I would give my soul, but it's already gone

I will have you because I'm weak

But I will use you up, and make a ruin of you

I'm a ruin

And I'll make a ruin of you
