MY RUIN LYRICS

1. Ready For Blood

Daughters of Mara - cast this net into the SHALLOW
Drag the water - personalities so HOLLOW
Underneath the surface - cowards tell their tales of WOE
Count your casualties so clever - NOTHING STAYS BURIED FOREVER!

[Chorus:]
TELL YOUR GOD TO READY FOR BLOOD WORDS WILL BE YOUR OWN DEMISE!
TELL YOUR GOD TO READY FOR BLOOD - LOYALTY IS JUST A LIE!

Drag the water - trust in those that we can SEE
Daughters of Mara - Recognize my ENEMIES
Forgive our trespasses - keep our conscious CLEAN
Let me give your last words to the DEVIL - NOTHING STAYS BURIED FOREVER

[Chorus]

Time heals everything - EXCEPT THIS HATRED IN MY HEART!
Friendships that can cease were never TRUE... I'd rather be feared than be LOVED!

TELL YOUR GOD TO READY FOR BLOOD - STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM US!
TELL YOUR GOD TO READY FOR BLOOD - TELL YOUR GOD WE'VE HAD ENOUGH!
Learn who is REAL - recount them at a later DATE -
BURN HOLLYWOOD BURN, ALL THOSE THAT ARE SO FAKE!

Sleep deprived me of impulsiveness to LIE...
Now I send condolences to those that we watched DIE -
No good deed goes UNPUNISHED...
IN THE END I WON'T REMEMBER WORDS OF ENEMIES...
JUST THE SILENCE OF THOSE WHO CLAIMED TO BE FRIENDS OF ME!
DESECRATED MEMORES BECAME A BLESSING IN DISGUISE -
IT TOOK A BRUTAL LANGUAGE TO OPEN UP MY FUCKING EYES!

2. Momento Mori

Remember you are MORTAL - remember you will DIE
within this moment of TRUTH you must prove yourself DIVINE...
And when salvation comes, the water always RISES
the devil hides his face and smiles in his DISGUISES

[Chorus:]
NO MERCY, PITY OR LOVE
ALL PRAY IN THEIR DISTRESS AND IN OUR GARDEN OF DELIGHT THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS!
NO MERCY, PITY OR LOVE -
YOUR HERO SHE WILL BURN!
TIME FLIES AMONG THE ROSES INFECTED BY THE WORM!

O kind and most sweet Jesus - day of the dead has PASSED...
they question our existence - for nothing ever LASTS...
Irreverent with regret, there is a howling STORM
the angel fell from grace and now her halo's filled with THORNS...

[Chorus]

ORE PARA NOSOTROS! ORE PARA NOSOTROS!
All my precious wounds will LEAK -
from this prophecy I SPEAK...
PIERCE MY ARMS AND MY FEET -
CAST MYSELF DOWN ON MY KNEES!
THROUGH REPENTANCE SHE IS SAVED FROM HER SINS AND HATE WITHIN...
MOMEMTO MORI!
HOPE AND SENTIMENTS OF FAITH...
BENEVIOLENT AND SAFE - MEMENTO MORI!
ORE PARA NOSOTROS... ORE PARA NOSOTROS!

3. Skeleton Key

Got her photo with her CHRIST and his autograph TONIGHT
kissed his lips and held his HAND, told her friends she's with the BAND...
MISTER INNOCENT I'M SURE - SHE'S TOO YOUNG AND IMMATURE!
SINCERITY IS THE NEW VULGARITY!

[Chorus:]
Come on baby you don't wanna be that NICE
sell yourself for any PRICE
sacrifice your self RESPECT,
you're just dying to CONNECT...

Look at all the pretty WHORES
pick the one who will be YOURS
say those lines you've MEMORIZED
be like all the other GUYS...

MISTER INNOCENT I'M SURE - SHE'S TOO DUMB AND INSECURE!
SINCERITY IS THE NEW VULGARITY!

[Chorus]

put your voodoo on her - don't be so superstitious!
put your voodoo on her - your words are so delicious!
put your voodoo on her - don't be so superstitious!
put your voodoo on her - REMEMBER HIDE THE MIRRORS!

ink your signature into her skin...
you just want to be WANTED...
WHEN YOU SMILE YOU ARE SO SWEET
LET'S PRETEND THAT I'M NAIVE
CLOSE MY EYES AND I CAN'T SEE WHERE I'VE GOT MY TONGUE IN CHEEK!

Let it run it's course and you'll be REDEEMED
open every door for your self ESTEEM,
got your skeleton key and it's safe to say
everyone is starved for attention THESE DAYS!

4. Me Without You

If we can't trust another and the night won't let us sleep...
Will all the pills I take each day still keep me on my feet?
with every friend we make we make another enemy...
but when all is said and all is done it's only you and me YOU AND ME!

[Chorus]
yesterday has come and gone...
there is no looking back, tomorrow we will smile...
THE PAST IS JUST THE PAST!

Now the sun has started shining and we're back where we belong...
and everything just feels right but I know it could go wrong...
if we trust so easy all these friends that come and go...
so promise that you won't forget, remember what we know - WHAT WE KNOW!

[Chorus]

TODAY WE WASH OUR HANDS AND ALL OUR SINS ARE SO CLEAN
DON'T YOU KNOW WE'VE GROWN TIRED OF ALWAYS WONDERING?!

For every story that is told another one is KEPT
but when the truth is finally spoke then we'll see who's LEFT!

YESTERDAY HAS COME AND GONE THERE IS NO LOOKING BACK!
TODAY WE SMILE AND WE LAUGH... THE PAST IS JUST THE PAST

5. Religiosity

Through the eyes of VANITY, CHAOS AND ANARCHY -
you come to me with open arms still NEEDING...
HAVE LAMB WILL MARTYR - HAVE LAMB
WILL SLAUGHTER LET ME LAY MY HANDS UPON YOU AND BRING YOU TO YOUR KNEES!

[Chorus:]
RELIGIOSITY - DEDICATION AND BELIEF - YOUR GOD CAN'T HELP YOU NOW!
CURIOSITY - THERE IS NO RELIEF! MY GOD IS EMPTY NOW!

Through the eyes of VANITY - THE YEARS OF SANITY -
I come to you with open wounds still BLEEDING...
HAVE LAMB WILL MARTYR - HAVE LAMB
WILL SLAUGHTER LAY YOURSELF UPON ME BABY AND BRING ME TO MY KNEES!

RELIGIOSITY - DEDICATION AND BELIEF - MY GOD CAN'T HELP ME NOW!
CURIOSITY - THERE IS NO RELIEF YOUR GOD IS EMPTY NOW!

Obscene dirt worshipping heathens FLOCK to the Judas like flies on SHIT...
the only way to get rid of the pain is just to LIVE THROUGH IT...
and we are punished for having no regrets, and we are banished -
BY THOSE WHO BOUGHT INTO IT!

If knowing is cognition and feeling is EFFECT, then doing is behaviour what comes NEXT...
through the eyes of GREED and LUST, YOU NEVER WANTED TO BELIEVE IN US!

Is it a love of lying or is it fear of dying -
does it really matter if no-one bothers trying -
and in the aftermath when there is nothing left
will everyone just go away when everything has been SAID?!

The road to perdition is paved with GOOD INTENTIONS -
the road to salvation is lined with your OBSESSIONS...

6. Slide You The Horn

Are you ready? come on, yeah! Come on baby cause we're going DOWN - tearing up this whole damn TOWN...
light it up and take a HIT - COME ALIVE AND SHAKE THAT SHIT!

[Chorus:]
HERE WE GO, WE'RE AT IT AGAIN - LIVING FAST YEAH
SIN AFTER SIN BEEN HELD DOWN FOR WAY TOO LONG,
COME OVER HERE WHILE I SLIDE YOU THE HORN!
It's a crazy little party TOWN - flying high 'til we hit the GROUND
so come on baby let's tie one on and keep it going to the BREAK OF DAWN, YEAH!

[Chorus]

SLIDE IT!

Yeah you're going down baby, oh driving me CRAZY
Nobody can save me - CAN'T FIGHT IT KNOW YOU GOTTA SLIDE IT YEAH... OH YEAH!
A little whisky is all we need - some Uncle Jack from Tennessee
so come on baby let me see you shake - YOU'RE GOING DOWN WHILE WE PICK UP THE SNAKE!

[Chorus]

YEAH! you're going down baby, oh driving me CRAZY
nobody can save me - CAN'T FIGHT IT KNOW YOU GOTTA SLIDE IT YEAH... OH YEAH!
HERE WE GO ROCK HARD FAST... DIE YOUNG STAY PRETTY - YOU KNOW IT WON'T LAST, NO WAY!

7. Not This Time

You leave a DIRTY TRAIL... so obvious like the REST,
but it's easy to find you when you're living WAY OUT WEST!
Don't cut your mouth on a sharp tongue, better watch out what you SAY!
I'm not so nice today, it hasn't gone away YET...
And I'm not going nowhere - SO YOU BETTER GET USED TO IT!

[Chorus:]
It's all good and FAKE distance keeps you SAFE
there's six degrees of no space - good try BUT NOT THIS TIME!
Mediocre fits you PERFECT and I'm so AMUSED to HEAR IT,
but I'll never buy your BULLSHIT - just like I will NEVER FEAR IT!

Keep kissing ass, shaking hands - BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU PLAY!
I'm not so nice today, it hasn't gone away YET...
And I'm not going nowhere - SO YOU BETTER GET USED TO IT!

[Chorus]

YOUR LIFE LIKE YOUR MIND FEEDS ALL YOUR LIES!
It's been a long time coming - LONG TIME COMING!
And I'm so glad I went with my instincts and did this...
while they all think you're perfect so we must have DESERVED IT!
BUT I KNOW QUITE DIFFERENT - SO I WILL RID MYSELF OF WORDS WHICH I HAVE HELD HOSTAGE - IN MEMORY OF A GIRL!

YOUR OPINION WHO ASKED FOR IT CONSIDERING ALL THAT YOU'VE SAID...
THE NEVER ENDING SHIT TALKING WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

[Chorus]

YOUR LIFE LIKE YOUR MIND FEEDS ALL YOUR LIES!
NO... NOT THIS TIME...
NO... NOT THIS TIME...
NO... NOT THIS TIME,
I CUT THE TIES THAT BIND!

YOU KEEP PLAYING THE MARTYR...
YOU... KEEP PLAYING THE MARTYR....
YOU... KEEP PLAYING THE MARTYR - GOOD TRY BUT NOT THIS TIME!

8. Dragon Steel

HEY BOY - KEEP TALKING you watch and we'll KEEP ROCKING
got the ego but ya got no HEART -
got all dressed up and couldn't play the PART...
Your friends, you KEEP them, don't know them and we didn't wanna MEET them...
keep it going but you ain't for REAL
you ain't nothing but DRAGON STEEL!

[Chorus:]
Put the hammer down - gonna ride right over you now...
put the hammer down - gonna ride gonna ride right over...
put the hammer down - gonna ride right over you now...
PUT THAT HAMMER DOWN!

HEY BOY - YOU WANT IT, can't get it but you know we've GOT IT,
happened so fast that it must be FATE - one day you're here next day REPLACED!
Your face - TWO SIDED - we know you and you know you can HIDE IT...

keep it going but you ain't for REAL
you ain't nothing but DRAGON STEEL!

[Chorus]

YOU LOOK SO BLOATED IN YOUR SELF IMPORTANT FAME - THEY SEE YOUR PHOTOS BUT NOBODY KNOWS YOUR NAME!
TAKE YOUR DUMB BLONDE COCAINE WHORE FEED HER LIES AND SELL HER MORE...
TELL YOUR FAMILY THAT YOU'RE FINE WORK THAT DOOR AND DO YOUR TIME!

PUT THE HAMMER DOWN - gonna ride right over you now...
put the hammer down - gonna ride, gonna ride MOTHERFUCKER!
put the hammer down - gonna ride right over you now,
PUT THAT HAMMER DOWN!

YOU'RE JUST A MOUTH THAT'S TALKING LOUD - YOU'RE JUST A MOUTH TALKING!
YOU'RE JUST A MOUTH THAT'S TALKING LOUD - YOU'RE JUST A MOUTH TALKING!

KARMA... KARMA... KARMA! Look how far that pendulum's swung now BITCH...

9. Nothing Is Scared

I know you think you know me... from all of the MAGAZINES...
Everybody loves a good comeback story... but that's really not my SCENE...
I don't wanna be the love you LOVE, you'll just hate me again next MONTH...
Let's not pretend that we are FRIENDS - I DON'T WANNA SHAKE YOUR HAND!
Your ego speaks so FLUENT... but your words are just so PASSE...
And you know I knew you'd do it... I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!
Now you're coming into my HOME... let me kill two birds with one STONE...
It's gonna take much more than your PEN... TO WRITE ME OFF AGAIN!

[Chorus:]
THIS IS THE ART OF SCREAMING - THERE'S NOTHING SACRED HERE!
YOU'D BETTER SORT YOUR DEMONS AND FIND OUT WHAT YOU FEAR!
If everything I say OFFENDS YOU...
Maybe you should go back to CHURCH...
I've got a lot of enemies, true... BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I HATED THEM FIRST!

So let me pray for ROCK...
you keep praying to god the devil's on his way and he can't be STOPPED,
We're all gonna die so cover your WRISTS and lord have mercy on my LIPS!
THIS IS THE ART OF SCREAMING - THERE'S NOTHING SACRED HERE!
YOU'D BETTER SORT YOUR DEMONS AND FIND OUT WHAT YOU FEAR!
THIS IS THE ART OF BREATHING - IT'S ALL OR NOTHING HERE!
IT'S TIME TO FACE YOUR MIRROR and find the one you fear...

10. Through The Wound

LATE AT NIGHT I WATCH AS THE SUN COMES UP - THE BREAK OF DAY IS NOT ENOUGH, WAS I REALLY DEAD?!
AND I REMEMBER HOW I FELT THIS TIME LAST YEAR - WONDER WILL IT DISAPPEAR SOMETHINGS GOTTA GIVE...

[Chorus:]
NEVER LET GO OF THAT FIERY SADNESS, THROAT FULL OF HEART - MOUTH OF MADNESS!
BY MISTAKE I SWALLOW ANOTHER PILL - BITTERSWEET IS SUCH A THRILL - TRY TO FEEL ALIVE!
AND I FORGET ALL THE PAIN JUST GOES AWAY - WISH THAT I COULD SLEEP ALL DAY DISCONNECT MYSELF...

[Chorus]
IS IT BETTER TO DEFEAT THIS MONSTER - BE SECURE IN THE SILENCE OR TO BE DEVOURED, DEVOURED?!
AND WHEN I STAND BEFORE YOU AT THE END OF THIS...
WILL I HAVE ENOUGH GUTS TO LOVE THOSE LITTLE SLICES OF MY DEATH?!
NEVER LET OF THAT FIERY SADNESS... NEVER LET GO OF THAT FIERY SADNESS!

And I would rather have eyes that can't see, ears that cant hear -
lips that can't speak... than a heart which no longer can beat...
this strange melancholy pervades me at which I hesitate to give the grave and that beautiful name of... MY LIFE!

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCARS - THE WAY OUT IS THROUGH THE WOUND
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCARS - THE WAY OUT IS THROUGH THE WOUND

Courage doesn't always roar, sometimes courage is that little voice at the end of the day that says...
I'LL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW...
