Ruins
With the boxes all packed, I switched off the light Moved out my flat and moved out my mind Don't know where I'm going but I know who calls me mine It's more than I've ever needed Spent my twenties tied up in people's advice And it emptied my bank and filled my head up with lies I wouldn't change much but less regrets would be nice But what good is the past to me now? Yeah, I don't know either So keep it moving [?] When I'm already losing Therе's no need to be scared of the ruins If falling apart lеads into your arms, it's all that I want (ooh) It's all that I want (ooh) it's all that I want (ooh) If falling apart With the car loaded up, we drove south on the road Needed some space to open things that I've closed I've learned that holding on is mostly letting go I still cling to the things that I keep Spent my twenties try'na be what I do Putting myself in the centre was a dizzying view Sometimes nightmares are needed for the dreams to come true But if you're asking me I don't understand it either Songtexte So keep it moving [?] When I'm already losing There's no need to be scared of the ruins If falling apart leads into your arms, it's all that I (Want, want, want) It's all that I want, want, want (the ruins) It's all that I want, want, want (yeah, keep it moving) It's all that I want, want, want It's all that I want, want, want (but there's no need to be scared) It's all that I want, want, want Fighting some foreign war, frozen water on all fours Longing for a lotion of [?] that is fading like a carpet in the sun What have I won if I've lost my sense of me? My sense of meant to be? An old friend to me who now seems immature when we meet now Beat down and swollen The tremors can still be felt, I'm on fire I just keep down, and roll it out I am a city overrun, overtaken, broken windows A fuel for the landmines (I'm as old as landlines) But my wounds are so youthful And when I'm pushed to the floor, it's the child inside me who falls And I'm so tired of feeling I've wandered in the dark so many nights That even in the light, sometimes I close my eyes, a force of habit All I've carried, falling out the shopping bags But I know it's in my [?] Has it been a while? All these [?] fasten to my sight Me and God are boats passing in the night (It's all that I want, want, want) (It's all that I want, want, want) But I have come to tell you there is joy in the morning Peace in despair, courage in the falling, calm in the chaos So don't be scared of the ruins Just keep it moving If falling apart leads me into your arms Then it's all that I (Want, want, want) It's all that I want, want, want It's all that I want, want, want It's all that I want, want, want It's all that I want, want, want It's all that I want, want, want... I have come to tell you there is joy in the morning Peace in despair, courage in the falling, calm in the chaos Aus Songtexte Mania
