Ruby always waits a while before she stays
Never looking back till hes miles away
Keeps her reputation like a stone
Shes not really tired, shes just overgrown
She says, Hey, I could be wrong,
But at least Im breathing!
Hey, we could go anywhere but down.
She says, Hey, let me be you
And Ill fall down screaming!
Everythings a miracle when youve got your face in the ground
Ruby never says what side shes on
She lives in the shade of unfinished songs
She has got a photographic soul
Everyone she meets in a fractured hole
She says, Hey, I could be wrong,
But at least Im breathing!
Hey, we could go anywhere but down.
She says, Hey, let me be you
And Ill fall down screaming!
Everythings a miracle when youve got your face in the ground
Ruby likes the sound of peoples clothes
No one ever knows when shell go
Shes got reservations with the ghost
Shes not looking back
Shes just growing old
She says, Hey, I could be wrong,
But at least Im breathing!
Hey, we could go anywhere but down.
She says, Hey, let me be you
And Ill fall down screaming!
Everythings a miracle when youve got your face in the ground
