Ruby always waits a while before she stays Never looking back till he's miles away Keeps her reputation like a stone She's not really tired, she's just overgrown She says, Hey, I could be wrong, But at least I'm breathing! Hey, we could go anywhere but down. She says, Hey, let me be you And I'll fall down screaming! Everything's a miracle when you've got your face in the ground Ruby never says what side she's on She lives in the shade of unfinished songs She has got a photographic soul Everyone she meets in a fractured hole She says, Hey, I could be wrong, But at least I'm breathing! Hey, we could go anywhere but down. She says, Hey, let me be you And I'll fall down screaming! Everything's a miracle when you've got your face in the ground Ruby likes the sound of people's clothes No one ever knows when she'll go She's got reservations with the ghost She's not looking back She's just growing old She says, Hey, I could be wrong, But at least I'm breathing! Hey, we could go anywhere but down. She says, Hey, let me be you And I'll fall down screaming! Everything's a miracle when you've got your face in the ground Ruby always waits a while before she stays Never looking back till he's miles away Keeps her reputation like a stone She's not really tired, she's just overgrown
