Blue Ruin Lyrics

I swear I never knew nothing could hurt you
Not a man alive could tell it to me true
How you went after the truth, how it worsened you
Time and time again defending every move
Time and time again pretending you were still you

Daylight turns to night
I swear I'd never find no one could break your mind
Daylight turns to night
I swear I never knew nothing could hurt you

I swear I'd never see, someone come crumbling
Least of all the one so near and dear to me
You say we're all just wandering, hell that's fine by me
Ain't it sad to say what you've never seen
Ain't it sad to say what you never will see

I swear I never knew, dreams I could sleep through
Waking up don't seem to scare me like it should
Now your light's not shining through, how it used to
All that lied inside is falling out of view
All the lies behind your eyes will never be true

Daylight turns to night
I swear I'd never find no one could break your mind
Daylight turns to night
I swear I never knew nothing could hurt you
