Jess Siracusa - Fallen Ruins (For Mrs. Puckett)

He caught us in the night
Our debts were paid so we could live and never have to fight
He called it off, refused to give, and saw a different light
We sent our men and threw the punch and tried to wane his might
I don't want you to tell me this is where we end
Let me lift up your life
We're fallen ruins, tell me where you want to go
On the outskirts, we can't look back, don't let them know
They won't catch us, the sharpest blade bleeds evenly so
Fall in ruins, I'll carry you as go
As you go
We did our best to fight
His men were tough and angry still
All we could see is strife
He killed our town, enslaved our men, and bid our lives goodbye
He's crowned the best of all of Greece and we turned heads to sigh our last breath
I don't want you to tell me this is where we end
Let me lift up your life
We're fallen ruins, tell me where you want to go
On the outskirts, we can't look back, don't let them know
They won't catch us, the sharpest blade bleeds evenly so
Fall in ruins, I'll carry you as go
As you go
Our citations led to our downfall
"He won't take our soul just 'cause we aren't whole"
Our assembly led to his war
"He won't take our soul just 'cause we aren't whole"
Our devour led to his rule
"He won't take our soul just 'cause we aren't whole"
Our blood won't stain his tatters
Let me take your soul so we can die whole
We're fallen ruins, tell me where you want to go
On the outskirts, we can't look back, don't let them know
They won't catch us, the sharpest blade bleeds evenly so
Fall in ruins, I'll carry you as go
As you go
Don't look back, don't let them know
And we can die whole
I'll carry you as you go
