Book of Ruth |
| Poor little baby |
| Blood on her hand |
| She said she’s losing her mind |
| She rolls her eyes |
| And speaks in tongues |
| Said it gets better with time |
| She wraps her head in bandages |
| To keep the words in her mouth |
| She prayed for more |
| Than what’s in store |
| Then locked the door to her house |
| Oh it’s me |
| I’ve been dead for years |
| Let me haunt you while I wake |
| It’s not the life I chose to live |
| But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
| I never meant we were perfect |
| Let me count the ways we hate |
| Yes all I have to do is wait |
| I guess all that I have to do is wait |
| Inside this house |
| The lights are dim |
| We count the cracks in the paint |
| I got a map she colored coastlines |
| And all the people to save |
| Out on the sidewalk |
| Wrapped in a sheet |
| She kissed the hands that she passed |
| She made her likeness |
| Out of paper |
| And lit the end with a match |
| Oh it’s me I’ve been dead for years |
| Let me haunt you while I wake |
| It’s not the life I chose to live |
| But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
| I never meant we were perfect |
| Let me count the ways we hate |
| I guess all that I have to do is wait |
| Instrumental |
| Poor little baby caught in a nightmare |
| And she was losing her mind |
| And on her deathbed |
| With her last breath |
| She said, «Well at least I tried» |
| Oh it’s me I’ve been dead for years |
| Let me haunt you while I wake |
| It’s not the life I chose to live |
| But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
| I never meant we were perfect |
| Let me count the ways we hate |
| I guess all I that have to do is wait |
| I guess all I have to do is wait |
