"In The Ruins" lyrics

"In The Ruins"

The warning was imminent
From shattered clouds
Violent skies aligning
To take us down

The poison water will reap
All it wants
Wretchedness stench of dying
Dripping off the walls

The shelled house where you grew
Is now gone
What was here is filled with dread
Ever changing form

The wind she wore reared its head
The howling blow left us for dead

The last act of love we can give to those we hold
Where there's deepened grief there was great love

We don't get over this, can we grow around?
No distorted ego when we're given grace

Now we stand in the ruins
And the morning is cold
There's nobody home anymore

The wind she wore reared its head
The howling blow left us for dead

The passion and lusts we engaged
Once touched your soul
Now sadness crashes in relentless waves

We don't get over this, can we grow around?
No distorted ego when we're given grace

Now we stand in the ruins
And the morning is cold
There's nobody home anymore
And now we stand in the ruins
And morning is cold
There's nobody home anymore
