Born to Ruin

Shake my glass remember the past it wasn’t that long ago it feels like years though First time in a bar in a town you don’t know everyone’s a cop or criminal or some mix of both Chase the light to the edge of the knife I’ve heard it’s the only way to keep things alive Just to see if they flinch do they care if they die? Is it worth the redemption? do you think that I would lie? Go on, try me - I wasn’t made to fail I was born to ruin to derail and prevail Sick of hearing excuses Sick of hearing your voice Where you die is your business Don’t make it mine Wrap me in the flag bury me deep this body is worthless my spirit needs sleep over the limit over the line born to ruin born to die The things that I believe will mean everything in the end I know it’s the truth because it tells me so It shows me in ways I could never describe and still the true revelation hides from my eyes.
