Ruins

When the heart stops pumping and the blood runs dry
When our feelings have crumbled from the Earth to the sky
And we look through books for some salvation
And we look to God for a revelation

I get this sinking feeling like somethings gonna happen all the same
I dont know what, but I know it cant change
We look to heaven, wait for a way
Years of progress ruined in a day

People around us well they make us sick
And they make us do things we cant begin to forget
And they place near heaven and hold us to God
They tell me whats right while theyre doing wrong

I get this sinking feeling like somethings gonna happen all the same
I dont know what, but I know it cant change
We look to heaven, wait for a way
Years of progress ruined in a day

The promises well they make me laugh
How could I have been so dumb to think it could last
We looked at each other thinking nothing will change
We promised each other that wed always thing the same

I get this sinking feeling like somethings gonna happen all the same
I dont know what, but I know it cant change
We look to heaven, wait for a way
Years of progress ruined in a day
