Birdy
Ruins I
[Verse 1]
Sweet surrender comes
After the dawn
We knew it was over long before
Don't look over your shoulder as you go
Dreams we made like grains of sand
You built me up to tear me down
Awakenin' on broken ground
Don't look back for me, can't save you now

[Chorus]
It's a cold, cold light
We'll never be the same again
I was blind
But now I'm seeing through it
It's a cold, cold light
You'll never see me again
You and I
We lie in ruins

[Verse 2]
Wavin' your white flag through the smoke
You tell me you want me, I know you don't
Leave it behind, give up the ghost
Don't look over your shoulder as you go
[Pre-Chorus]
So how long have you known?
When you were beside me, was I alone?
So how long have you known?
How I see you now, it's cold

[Chorus]
It's a cold, cold light
We'll never be the same again
I was blind
But now I'm seeing through it
It's a cold, cold light
You'll never see me again
You and I
We lie in ruins

[Bridge]
Ruins, ruins, ruins
We'll never be the same again
Ruins, ruins, ruins
We'll never be the same again
Ruins, ruins, ruins
We'll never the same again
You and I
We lie in ruins
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
