Melissa Etheridge - Ruins lyrics
[Melissa Etheridge - Ruins lyrics]
There are some bridges that burn
Beyond recognition beyond repair
Don't say you've changed
There are some forces that turn
Beyond recollection, beyond my stare
When I feel the cold in the dark
I know you're there
Long ago i was a woman in pain
A woman in need i ran to you
Long ago i did not understand
You were making me bleed i ran to you
When I feel the cold in the dark
I know what you do
I will crawl through my past
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins
Reaching under the fence
As I try to make sense in the ruins
I know your heart has held it's own fear
It's perfectly clear what they did to you
But in my heart it's the screaming I hear
I won't let them come near
Since my love knew you
When I feel the cold in the dark
I remember you
I will crawl through my past
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins
Reaching under the fence
As I try to make sense in the ruins
Night after night i am carving it out
I will carry it down to the waterside
Night after night i am hearing the sound
Of wings that come beating i will not hide
When I feel the cold in the dark
I will know why
But I will crawl through my past
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins
Reaching under the fence
As I try to make sense in the ruins
But if I am to heal
I must first learn to feel in the ruins
I will crawl i will crawl
I will crawl oh, oh, oh, oh
