[00:16.83]	Come on, my little ruin
[00:18.39]	won’t you open up
[00:19.94]	and let us in
[00:25.52]	Time has not been kind
[00:26.87]	but you're still standing here
[00:33.28]	Leave a light on
[00:33.83]	in your window
[00:35.38]	won’t you let me see a sign
[00:39.75]	It’s gonna take more
[00:41.05]	than smoke and mirrors now
[00:42.80]	for me this time
[00:46.28]	Come on, my little sorrow
[00:47.73]	won’t you sing yourself
[00:49.18]	a different song
[00:54.67]	The melody that made you
[00:56.42]	is now a worn-out sing-along
[01:03.23]	Every body’s looking at you
[01:05.17]	but I can’t stand to watch
[01:09.46]	I’ve seen this scene
[01:10.66]	come and go too much
[01:15.47]	And oh, how you struggle
[01:19.04]	through the hours
[01:23.14]	With your sorrow
[01:27.10]	leading the way
[01:30.31]	And as you stood there
[01:35.45]	among the cowards
[01:39.22]	You were letting them win
[01:42.03]	But I’m not gonna stand aside
[01:46.02]	and watch them tear you up
[01:50.54]	No, I’m not
[01:52.40]	'Cause you're better than they are
[01:54.60]	And I can’t say it enough
[01:58.88]	That’s enough
[02:00.82]	What are you doing
[02:10.01]	Come on, my little ruin
[02:11.56]	won’t you build yourself
[02:13.01]	back up again
[02:18.31]	Won’t you take the time
[02:19.21]	you were given
[02:19.86]	you promised it to yourself
[02:26.45]	You could stand among
[02:27.50]	the best of them
[02:28.75]	if you could hold your own
[02:33.15]	But no-one's gonna do it
[02:34.81]	for you now
[02:35.56]	but you and you alone
[02:39.31]	And oh
[02:40.71]	how you struggle with your power
[02:46.30]	And keep your back tight
[02:50.86]	to the wall
[02:53.70]	And as you were counted
[02:59.68]	among the cowards
[03:02.87]	They didn’t see you at all
[03:05.88]	Now you're caught
[03:07.98]	on a rising wave
[03:10.13]	and I can’t get you off
[03:14.27]	But I’m not gonna stand aside
[03:18.32]	and watch them tear you up
[03:22.59]	No, I’m not
[03:24.45]	'Cause you're better than they are
[03:26.85]	You're better than they are
[03:28.95]	You're better than they are
[03:31.00]	You're better than they are
[03:33.05]	You're better than they are
[03:35.55]	And I can’t say it enough
[03:39.30]	That’s enough
[03:41.33]	What are you doing
[03:49.74]	What are you doing
[03:58.86]	Come on, my little ruin
[04:00.31]	won’t you tell me
[04:01.45]	where the feeling’s gone
[04:07.21]	There's nothing lost between us
[04:08.81]	you can come back
[04:09.93]	anytime you want

[00:16.83]	Come on, my little ruin
[00:18.39]	won' t you open up
[00:19.94]	and let us in
