lyrics

maybe, maybe i was wrong;
i don't know
but to me all the boys are so stupid--
and the girls ain't much better,
so i go it alone.
the road rises to meet me more than you did.

and through superfission i feel strong,
the truth of the matter is, i just don't belong.

i was broken, but honest,
at least until now;
i've never been left for better,
but i don't know which is worse.
i may love my religion,
but i'll never bend down;
why look for a second coming
when there was never a first?

you should believe me;
my name ain't Ruby for nothing.
you could perceive me,
even during my best-feigned regard.

it's hard
to see stars without looking
although they are there,
but there are some burned deep down into my head.
i don't expect or protect or regret or receive;
i don't follow or recoil or reign or deceive.
i don't suffer or worry, or even believe
your story of descendence from Adam & Eve.
i don't suffer or worry, or even believe
your story of descendence.
