Hey Ruth

Hey, Ruth
What are you searching for?
Besides a little truth
Besides a little truth
Sometimes the truth can be disguised
In a thousand little lies
And sometimes I am blind…
Sometimes

Mmm…
Hey, Ruth
What did you lose back in
The carnival kissing booth
Do I want to know the truth?
Sometimes a kiss is just a kiss
Unless you find something you’ve missed
And sometimes it’s just this…
Sometimes

I’ve held you close and said these things
A million times, I know
Just to touch your butterfly wings
And watch you die almost

Hey, Ruth
In a moment you’ll be gone
After these words become
What I choose to call the truth
Mmm…
Forgotten, but that I
Will turn them over in my mind
Time after time
Sometimes

Mmm… Hey, Ruth!

Mmm… Hey, Ruth

i was trying to present it as layers of skin being peeled away to get to the next section, with the glockenspiel over bryan’s piano loop, which was like the true inner self. and i kept thinking about michael jackson throughout the whole process.Jack Shite
