Simple Plan - Ruin My Life Lyrics

Simple Plan Lyrics

"Ruin My Life"
(feat. Deryck Whibley)

I used to lie awake and let you occupy my mind
I used to put you first and always leave myself behind
And I'll admit you got real close but I'll be sleeping fine tonight
Sorry, I don't mean to disappoint you
It didn't ruin my life

Why'd I let you in my head
I never shoulda let you creep in
Every single word you said
Gotta find a way to shake it

You don't wanna let me be
You wanna see me fall to pieces
Tryna put a curse on me
Gotta find a way to break it

I used to lie awake and let you occupy my mind
I used to put you first and always leave myself behind
And I'll admit you got real close but I'll be sleeping fine tonight
Sorry, I don't mean to disappoint you
It didn't ruin my life

Some days I just can't win
You always had to point your finger
But words will never pierce my skin
I finally found a way to shake them

And you can spill your hate on me
Now I know that I can take it
And you're the one who's hurt clearly
You're the one who's really breaking

I used to lie awake and let you occupy my mind
I used to put you first and always leave myself behind
And I'll admit you got real close but I'll be sleeping fine tonight
Sorry, I don't mean to disappoint you
It didn't ruin my life

I used to lie awake and let you occupy my mind (occupy my mind)
I used to put you first and always leave myself behind
And I'll admit you got real close but I'll be sleeping fine tonight
Sorry, I don't mean to disappoint you
You didn't ruin my life
You didn't ruin my life
You didn't ruin my life

Simple Plan told about this single in a press release. "'Ruin My Life' is a song about overcoming adversity, going through a difficult life situation, and not only surviving it, but becoming an even stronger and more resilient version of yourself because of it. It's fun, catchy, energetic and empowering, and we're so excited to share it with our fans. Having Deryck from Sum 41 sing on it with us makes it even more special."

Deryck Whibley said about this collaboration, "Pierre asked me if I'd be interested in singing on 'Ruin My Life', and my answer was, 'Yeah – let me hear it!' We made a couple of slight changes to the song after I got involved, just so it'd fit my voice better, but it was a pretty seamless process altogether. Right away, I knew it was a good, catchy song, so it was largely a case of me turning the microphone on, hitting 'Record' and singing my part!"
