My Little Ruin歌词

作词 : Hansard, Glen James
作曲 : Hansard, Glen James
Come on, my little ruin
won’t you open up
and let us in
Time has not been kind
but you're still standing here
Leave a light on
in your window
won’t you let me see a sign
It’s gonna take more
than smoke and mirrors now
for me this time
Come on, my little sorrow
won’t you sing yourself
a different song
The melody that made you
is now a worn-out sing-along
Every body’s looking at you
but I can’t stand to watch
I’ve seen this scene
come and go too much
And oh, how you struggle
through the hours
With your sorrow
leading the way
And as you stood there
among the cowards
You were letting them win
But I’m not gonna stand aside
and watch them tear you up
No, I’m not
'Cause you're better than they are
And I can’t say it enough
That’s enough
What are you doing
Come on, my little ruin
won’t you build yourself
back up again
Won’t you take the time
you were given
you promised it to yourself
You could stand among
the best of them
if you could hold your own
But no-one's gonna do it
for you now
but you and you alone
And oh
how you struggle with your power
And keep your back tight
to the wall
And as you were counted
among the cowards
They didn’t see you at all
Now you're caught
on a rising wave
and I can’t get you off
But I’m not gonna stand aside
and watch them tear you up
No, I’m not
'Cause you're better than they are
You're better than they are
You're better than they are
You're better than they are
You're better than they are
And I can’t say it enough
That’s enough
What are you doing
What are you doing
Come on, my little ruin
won’t you tell me
where the feeling’s gone
There's nothing lost between us
you can come back
anytime you want
