Beautiful Ruin - Biko

I been fuckin up

Looking back on the ways

You used to love me

The you I used to know, she

Fell from grace into her grave

Forever close her eyes

You want dust and wreckage

And I want compromise so

I put a little more space

Between me and you

Another one or two inches

I could take a few feet

Six would probably do

I become a new person

You’ll never know

And so do you

I just wanted you to hold me

I didn’t mean to need you

Or fall into your love

Our beautiful ruins

When w both erupt

Though the settling dust

Th warmth of your blood

The future for us, in ruins
