You hold my lines in your hands As I write between them All of the things that I need them to say You read the words But don't speak their truth They don't reverberate It's like a film developed in the wrong light You can see it but it doesn't look right Or is it all the same to you How does the building stand when her structure breaks She wants to hold steady But she isn't ready to hold all the weight And there she crumbles So you can walk away

Ruins
You hold my lines in your hands As I write between them All of the things that I need them to say You read the words But don't speak their truth They don't reverberate It's like a film developed in the wrong light You can see it but it doesn't look right Or is it all the same to you How does the building stand when her structure breaks She wants to hold steady But she isn't ready to hold all the weight And there she crumbles So you can walk away
