Seinabo Sey - Ruin

I escaped you right on time
Can't be partners in this crime
Starts shut down the remanence of my dream
Kissed like on a silver screen
Cotton fields and beauty queens
Nothing here was ever as it seemed

Time has come to leave the line
I can't sign your pledge this time
Madness spread acress the land as we
Saw the devil had a trick
We have clothes and crucifix
He who stands for nothing, falls alone

You tighten the rope
Watch the seasons grow
You have made it clear
Nothing for me here
Said to each his own
We all stand alone
I'm just a brick
In you ruin of love

I'm just a brick, in your ruin love
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love

We have played those strings attached
Out of key we didn't last
Sunset in our never ending scene
I held on to broken thoughts
Love is but a poisoned dart
Drenched in kerosene

You tighten the rope
Watch the seasons grow
You have made it clear
Nothing for me here
Said to each his own
We all stand alone
I'm just a brick
In you ruin of love

I'm just a brick, in your ruin love
I'm just a brick, in your ruin love

There's nothing more I need to say
There's nothing more I need to say
I'll forgive you but it's not that day
There's nothing more I need to say
There's nothing more I need to say
I'll forgive you but it's not that day
