Ruby Red

Heather Nova

I've got a ruby red desire

Like a virus like my last hope



I've got a ruby red desire

I've got to hear the red bird sing

I've got to rip this cord

And rinse this lazy blood

Clear a path and walk away



I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been worried I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the safety net

Tell myself that I'm not ready yet



And every memory's a dream

And each uncertainty reminds me why

I saw a kid outside playing by a moongate

Making paper things that fly



I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been worried I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the safety net

Tell myself that [m not ready yet



I want to live ...



I've been waiting for the sky to fall

I've been worried I could lose it all

I've been waiting for the safety net

Tell myself that I'm not ready yet



I want to live ...
