about

Recorded remotely (and safely) during the height of the ongoing COVID pandemic, with each member doing his or her own engineering work from home in order to maintain proper social distancing, Ruiner is our first single in roughly 3 years and the first release from the album's worth of material resulting from these pandemic sessions.

We sincerely hope you enjoy it!

lyrics

faded
autumn's hollow light
is wasted
on december eyes

once you've tasted
the hatred
you'll wish it was chased with
the vaguest and basest alibis

but not this time.

jaded
since you were seventeen
and it comes down
to the choice between:

a new page
or a slow fade
but you can't have it both ways
but don't say that you didn't have the time

to decide.

you could've had it all
you let it go to waste
you could've had it all

you ruiner

(you ruiner)

faded
autumn's hollow light
is wasted
on december eyes

it's a new page
or a slow fade
but you can't have it both ways
oh it's too late for you to decide

you're out of time.

you could've had it all
you let it go to waste
you could've had it all

you ruiner

(you ruiner)

i used to be like you
and do the things you'd do
as the bitterness
latches onto you

but now i have a different view
and i intend to see it through
it won't swallow me
like it swallowed you

(you could've had it all
you could've had it...)

you could've had it all
you let it go to waste
you could've had it all

you ruiner

so cup your dirty hands
and try to catch the dust
you could've had it all
(you could've had it all)
you could've had it all
(you could've had it all)
you could've had it all

you ruiner.
