"Ruins" lyrics - MT. JOY

"Ruins"

Don't cry, the river will be alright
We'll just melt all the plastic to the sea
And maybe California is the only place

[Refrain:]
Where this old engine, it just glides through the ruins
Fare you well, all that gives us hell
Out the mouth of the Mississippi

Halfway home, I caught you dreamin'
In the passenger seat, your feet out the window
Like, maybe your love, it gets torn from the bone
In the eyes of the Lord

[Refrain:]
And this old engine, it just glides through the ruins
And fare you well, all that gives us hell
Out the mouth of the Mississippi

[Bridge:]
In love, we got to try
A little love, we, you just got to try

[Instrumental interlude]

[Outro:]
In love, we got to try, Lord
A little love, we, we just got to try
In love, we got to try
Yes, in love, we, we just got to try, hm-mmm, mmm
