Mrs. Ruston Songtext
von The Pink Spiders

Mrs. Ruston, I survived the rest of your life
Unaware, oblivious you couldn′t be down
And now you've given out the combination code
And they know
Mrs. Ruston, time retired all the lies
ElectraCare expired with the knives
But your eyes are deep and cut through me
You′re in the afterglow, what a show

And she keeps sketching her dreams
From the back of her mind into the souls of machines
An audience breathes the trouble she's trying to forget
And these scenes obviously
Though I don't know what they said
Somehow I know what they mean
But how can I trust the bridge if I didn′t build it?

Mrs. Ruston, he was waiting there all along
What a fool, but how could anyone think it wrong
To wait or hesitate from pushing you away
If you′d stayed?


And she keeps sketching her dreams
From the back of her mind into the souls of machines
An audience breathes the trouble she's trying to forget
And these scenes obviously
Though I don′t know what they said
Somehow I know what they mean
But how can I trust the bridge if I didn't build it?

(Ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah)

The constellations falling slowly from the sky
With blurry edges through the tears that fill your eyes
You′d like to catch them but you're too afraid to try
′Cause it might be worth the effort
But it's just not worth the time

Mrs. Ruston, life resides inside of the gray
And every step reminds me what you said
About losing touch with those you love
Giving yourself away every day


And she keeps sketching her dreams
From the back of her mind into the souls of machines
An audience breathes the trouble she's trying to forget
And these scenes obviously
Though I don′t know what they said
Somehow I know what they mean
But how can I trust the bridge if I didn′t build it?
When she keeps quiet and cleans
Wipes the impact, in fact, it's all that she needs
As an ambulance screams, a choir to silence the regrets
This one dream evidently
Was like a flashback trip that was stealing the scene
But how can I trust the bridge if I didn′t build it?

(Ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah)
