["Reaching under the fence as I try to make sense","I will carry it down to the waterside","Night after night I am hearing the sound","Reaching under the fence as I try to make sense","","","","In the ruins","","When I feel the cold in the dark","","","I won't let them come near since my love knew you","When I feel the cold in the dark","","In the ruins","I will know why","It's perfectly clear what they did to you","In the ruins","","But I will crawl through my past over stones, blood and glass","Don't say you've changed","I will crawl through my past over stones, blood and glass","","I remember you","There are some forces that turn beyond recollection beyond my stare","When I feel the cold in the dark","","I will crawl through my past over stones, blood and glass","Reaching under the fence as I try to make sense","In the ruins","In the ruins","There are some bridges that burn beyond recognition beyond repair","When I feel the cold in the dark","I will crawl, I will crawl, I will crawl","But in my heart it's the screaming I hear","I know your heart has held its own fear","Night after night I am carving it out","In the ruins","Don't try to call","You were making me bleed, I ran to you","Long ago I was a woman in pain","","But if I am to heal I must first learn to feel","A woman in need, I ran to you","Of wings that come beating I will not hide","I know you're there","I know what you do","In the ruins","Long ago I did not understand"]
