RUINS - Sleater-Kinney

And just before midnight

You came into our room

A demon so frightening

Both ancient and new

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

You’re a creature of sorrow

You’re the beast we made

You scratch at our sadness

'Til we’re broken and frayed

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

Eat the weak and devour the saved

From our bones, a new monster’s made

Smack the buildings, eat the place, destroy all day

Do you feast on nostalgia?

Take pleasure from pain

Look out 'cause the children

Will learn your real name

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

Gonna leave the light on for you

Eat the weak and devour the saved

From our bones, a new monster’s made

Smack the buildings, eat the place, destroy all day

Eat the weak and devour the saved

From our bones, a new monster’s made

Nothing left but ruins at the end of the day

Eat the weak and devour the saved

From our bones, a new monster’s made

Smack the buildings, eat the place, destroy all day

Eat the weak and devour the saved

From our bones, a new monster’s made

Nothing left but ruins at the end of the day
