Blue Ruin Lyrics - Singles - Ashengrace

cold, distant light... 

in this stale instant I might 

believe I might be one with you 

it seems it's all I ever do 

this is pain, this hunger to be 

more than I am but who I used to be 

all I see in your sweltering gaze 

is all that will never be 

"you surround me in a tower of gold 

you gave me dreams to dream and helped them to unfold 

you saved me from myself and freed me from the stone 

you are the bluest ruin I have ever known. 

You took these broken wings and taught them how to fly 

you gave me dreams to dream and gave me reasons why 

you made me believe in you, you made me all you home 

you are the bluest ruin I have ever known" 

dark frozen stares... 

across the aching sea of neverwhere 

through the looking glass the sorrow swells 

her bold pronouncement and her tale to tell 

this is the (there is no) easy way out 

through the Tower to the razor's shout 

she spins the web around me and pulls me to my knees 

she sets ablaze the Giving Tree and throws it to the sea 

"you submerge me in your static gaze 

you leave me burning in the shimmering haze 

you are the one who leaves me clawing down alone 

you are the bluest ruin I have ever known 

you inspire me in ways you cannot see 

and when I let go of my failings you'll be there to remind me 

i'll drown in sorrow's wake, dragged down by the stone 

you are the bluest ruin I have ever known"
