Ruin - Gemma Hayes

Hiding out in trenches I’ve built

I’m so good at it now

I know how to trick myself

We’ll soon see if you’ll be my ruin

I maybe high but you got me terrified

You make me feel something again

You make me feel human

You make me feel something again

At least I feel human again

I was fine with nothing

I was fine in a dream

Did nobody tell you

You can’t wake a girl who pretends to sleep

I, I don’t know how you did it

But I can’t catch my breath

Wrapped so tightly round my chest

Your love is a tourniquet

You make me feel something again

You make me feel human

You make me feel something again

At least I feel human again

What do you burn

What do you keep

You can’t wake a girl

Who pretends to sleep

Over and over

Cutting at scars

You need the darkness

If you wanna see stars

What do you burn

What do you keep

You can’t wake a girl

Who pretends to sleep

Over and over

Cutting at scars

You need the darkness

If you wanna see stars

I don’t know why I tell you these things

I don’t know why I tell you these things

I don’t know why I tell you these things

I don’t know why I tell you these things
