lyrics

Ruined by Miranda Joan

no young romance
no long term lover
to hold my hand
in uncharted water

i moved away
i was a woman
tired of waiting
on love’s illusions

i know i know
it was foolish
i know it showed
i was new at this
i thought alone
i could do it
but for a long time
I was ruined

and so i settled
on someone i barely knew
i needed to know
how it would feel

so i lost my head
in the bottom of a glass
to numb my soul
but the shame would last

i know i know
it was foolish
i know it showed
i was new at this
i thought alone
i could do it
but for a long time
i was ruined

i had my fill
but I wasn’t finished
the doors blew open
on years of this shit

i tried to hide
the way i felt
but alone in the darkness
i misplaced myself

i know i know
it was foolish
i know it showed
i was new at this
and i thought alone
i could do it
but for a long time
i was ruined
