House of the Ruin Lyrics

Oh the latter days go by in the House of the Ruin

Roman heroes in the sky and the carnival is burning

In favor with the gods and walk it two by two

I'll be the other next to you

In the bellow of the night while the Mona Lisa wonders

About the big old world outside and the spell that she's been under

Shoot an arrow through her heart in the garden of dismay

Live forever in a day

I don't know why I don't care

Keep the wolves in your eyes when the mountains are shaking

Proserpina wants to cry ain't a fine way of breaking

Sing Aurora to the moon child go and make your mother proud

Keep your head up in the clouds

And tell St. Augustine he's right about the great expectations

While Estella takes a ride at the London Station

Oh two lovers in a hotel order service to the room

Alberta's missing me and you

I don't know why I don't care

I don't see you anywhere

All the windows open wide in the back of a car

And you never pay no mind to how long or how far

Keep running in the distance it's a balance of your fate

It's never early or too late

I don't know why I don't care

I don't see you anywhere

Oh the latter days go by in the House of the Ruin
