Ruthless Lyrics by Something Corporate

Played In Space: The Best Of Something Corporate

2003

[Verse 1]
This is the only lonely picture
Waiting on my floor, littering my shore
This is the last true burning letter
Given to a girl, written by a boy
Living in a world created to destroy

[Pre-Chorus]
But if I built you a city, would you let me?
Would you tear it down?

[Chorus]
But there you go for the last time
I finally know now what I should've known then
And I could still be ruthless if you let me
But there you go when I'm not done
You're waving goodbye, well, at least you're having fun
The rising tide will not let you forget me
Forget me

[Verse 2]
This is your ghost that kneels before me
Praises on her tongue, a body full of oxygen
It won't be the last time she'll ignore me
The thinning of my skin without the strength to go
The winter's setting in to cover you in snow

[Pre-Chorus]
But if I built you a city, would you let me?
Would you tear it down?

[Chorus]
But there you go for the last time
I finally know now what I should've known then
And I could still be ruthless if you let me
But there you go when I'm not done
You're waving goodbye, well, at least you're having fun
The rising tide will not let you forget me
Forget me, forget me
Forget me, forget me, yeah

[Bridge]
And I'll raise towers and climb them
Rivers and walk them
Oceans to drown in
You won't make a sound in

[Chorus]
But there you go for the last time
I finally know now what I should've known then
And I could still be ruthless if you let me
But there you go when I'm not done
You're waving goodbye, well, at least you're having fun
The rising tide will not let you forget me
Forget me
