Ruin

Wish I had brakes for when I start falling

I'm a kid who got her wheels, still learning how to just slow down

And you were a year younger at the same college

Well, maybe it's the way you act above your age that takes me there somehow

Oh, and I've been here before

Feel the rush, that's how you know it's over

So, if you're gonna open that door

Just know I'm staying up late in bed, wondering

Will it be T-shirts or candles or birthdays?

Can we agree not to listen to Lennon?

'Cause then I can't play back "Yesterday"

And maybe I'm making too much out of a good thing

Oh, but if you leave me in ruins (Ruins)

Could you not ruin those things for me?

Do, do-do-do, do-do

Do-do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do

And I don't know why I'm thinking 'bout the ending

It's not like anything you've said is any little thread of doubt

I guess I'm just scared you're a master at pretending

'Cause it only takes a day to turn the cheek away and leave me on the ground

Oh, and I've been here before

Held on to the words that didn't mean nothing

So, if you're gonna open that door

Just know I'm staying up late in bed, wondering

Will it be T-shirts or candles or birthdays?

Can we agree not to listen to Lennon?

'Cause then I can't play back yesterday

And maybe I'm making too much out of a good thing

Oh, but if you leave me in ruins (Ruins)

Could you not ruin those things for me?

No, I don't want us to have a song

'Cause, baby, then our song is gonna be one more thing to lose

And, if I tell the truth

I couldn't take it, no, I couldn't take it

So, let's not go out to that restaurant

The one where we both stopped and said, "Oh, my God, well, this looks cute!"

I won't go there with you

'Cause, if it's T-shirts or candles or birthdays

Maybe we're doomed from the start if I'm tearing apart all the ways we're gonna break

I'm definitely making too much out of a good thing

Oh, but if you leave me in ruins (Ruins)

You're gonna leave me in ruins (Ruins)

But could you not ruin those things for me?
