Come on my little ruin
Won't you open up and let me in
Well time has not been kind
But you're still standing here

Leave a light on in your window
Won't you let me see a sign
It's gonna take more than smoking mirrors
Now for me this time

Come on our Mr. Sorrow
Won't you sing yourself a different song
The melody that made you is now worn out
Sing along

Well everybody is looking at you
But I can't stand to watch
I've seen this scene come and go too much

And Oh
How you struggle
Through the hours
With your sorrow leading the way
And as you're stooping
Among the cowards
You will let them win
But I'm not gonna stand aside
And watch them tear you up
No I'm not
Because you're better than the hour
And I can't say it enough
It's enough
What are you doing?

Come on my little ruin
Wont you build yourself back up again
Won't you take the time you were given
You promised it to yourself

You can stand among the best of them
If you could hold your own
But no one's gonna do it for you now
But you and you alone

And Oh
How you struggle
With your powers
And keep your backside to the wall
And, as you're counted
Among the cowards
Didn't see you at all
But I'm caught
On a rising wave and I can't get you up
But I'm not
Gonna stand aside
And watch them tear you up
No I'm not
Because you're better than the hour
You're better than the hour
You're better than the hour
You're better than the hour
You're better than the hour
And I can't say it enough
It's enough
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
