Built On Ruins (No Excuses)

(Estaleiros de S.Jacinto01/09/2012)




"Why have you come here with this weight on your mind?
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose at a price
A slave to the daytime
Till the church chimes twelve o'clock, you're waking up

I sometimes get so lost in me, I just don’t see
Your kiss can change a morning
Same kiss that changed a man
We’ve been the best of enemies till become the worst of friends

I sold in mint conditions
But you knew that when you paid
Now you’re following traditions
And exhuming our remains

No excuse, I can’t help defending her
We build on ruins
To be in love with love and not with us

So put yourself in my shoes and walk in them a while 
See how far they get you before they break your smile
I’m warm in the interior of the heavens you’ve designed
But now my feet are cold and curious to walk beyond the line

No excuse, you can’t help forgiving me
We build on ruins
To be in love with love and not with us

I’m living past the years that my heroes never reached
I’m running out of heroes, I learn better than I teach
When you’ve as many words as I, you find nothing says it best
Say nothing in reply, say nothing on request

No excuse
No excuses
No excuse
To be in love with love
To be in love
To be in love with love...."
