"Ruin It" lyrics
"Ruin It"
I've waited a long time for this life
Just to ruin it, so please don't ruin this for me
Yes, I understand this lie, hell, I crossed those Ts
I scratched out all these eyes myself last night
When I promised not to fight
So this is what I'm looking like these days
I'm all grown up, so full of hate
But I don't want to let go of my rage
'Cause it's the salt that brings the taste
So where am I if you decide that I'm not right?
'Cause I might break and I might bend
Your heartstrings out of tune again
And I might try to apologize
On a good day, on my best day, if you stick around
Did I stay inside to sterilize this knife?
Am I being too careful, does this seem right?
Did I open up the shades to expose the sun in rays?
To show what's burned there inside
Yeah, take a close look, hold me right up to the light
'Cause I might break and I might bend
Your heartstrings out of tune again
And I might try to apologize
On a good day, on my best day, if you stick around
I've waited for so long
I've waited for so long
Spread me out, rake me in
This coarse and rocky field will camouflage my skin
And I might break and I might bend
Your heartstrings out of tune again
And I might try to apologize
On a good day, on my best day, if you stick around

If the fires there don't put it out.
Lay me down,

I don't ever wanna waste another day.
