She walked in ruins
Written by Jesse Rómlárson
Some people fall in love
She drowned in it
Sixteen years
She is now replaced
She waited for a man
Who walked away smiling
Now,
Now she kisses ghosts
As her silence keeps piling
She burns through names
Like morning cigarettes
One man and the next
But a mirror to forget
She walks in ruins
Carrying her wounds
Wearing the dust
Of love’s forgotten tombs
Perfume and pride
A Pisces heart
Too deep to find
Blaming the stars
She walks in ruins
Through the crumbs of genders
Wearing the dust
Of love’s forgotten tombs
Perfume and pride
A Pisces heart
Too deep to find
Blaming the stars
She walks in ruins
Through the crumbs of genders
Loving in stereo
Calling on her lover’s tenders
She now wanders for love
Sadness in her broken soul
Looking for a light
To lead her back home
Walking in ruins, ruins, ruins
Walking for love, love, love
Walking in ruins, ruins, ruins
Lost for love, love…
