Ruby Red

When you’re young
And they jam it into your head
Where it withers and dies
And what’s left can come from your heart, you’ll never get out a word
With all your might and you want to throw it away
The highest blessing you ever will contain
Cause you got all that trouble buzzing in your brain
All that was sacred just becomes waste again
It comes crawling in
The shape of a lie
And the word alone
So yeah
I don’t know whats wrong with you
Say the word and I’ll be willing
I hate to see what brought us down so far
Oh yeah
I want to dance this day with you
I don’t know where to I’m running
I just hope my baby’s right beside
I know we’re running babe
What are we running from here
The world’s been running babe
Let’s run in love
And while we’re running
You ought to keep it in mind
Don’t know about promises
Or what you love
But I know enough to care
And as long as we’re all living
Gonna see I’ll do it right this time
Oh yeah
Gonna blame it on the world
But you know that we’re missing
Anything you keep locked inside
