"Ruins Of Today" lyrics

It's the dead of night
You're on Mullholand Drive
Looking over a city that's lost its light
And you think how long
Have I been dead in my own life?
You glide down Ventura
And all of the people
Are looking down asleep at their phones
And you think, oh my God
Am I here all alone?

When all the lights in your life go out
I need you to know I'm here
When all the stars in your heart burn out
I need you to know you're safe
From the ruins of today
We'll pick up the pieces and run

You float down to Zuma
You know that there's beauty
But none of it reaches your heart
And you think, oh my God
Am I trapped in this dark?
You wake up in a wild room
The medicine's singing
And strangers are glowing in white
You pray, Mother
Make me belong in this life

When all the lights in your life go out
I need you to know I'm here
When all the stars in your heart burn out
I need you to know you're safe
From the ruins of today
We'll pick up the pieces and run

In life and death, I'm always with you
I need you to know I'm here
When all the stars in your heart burn out
I need you to know you're safe
From the ruins of today
We'll pick up the pieces and run
