lyrics

airport dropoff / hometown waves
glimpses back at different days
corner store has closed its doors
houses on the hill don't shine no more
Ruby moved out and took her cats
nobody 'round here knows where she's at
Gone to the woods where the hermits live
gone from there, yeah we know she did

Ruby Won't Die

Curtains drawn to a close / a vacant house with a grand piano
sneak in late while the choppers search with heat-seeking lenses for
Ruby Birch
Playing songs so out of key my ears duck and run and abandon me
I'm home for a week to find it again
and find Ruby Birch and bring her back

Ruby Won't Die

End of days in my hometown and Ruby Birch was never found
house on the hill, well they tore it down
and in it's place sits empty ground
I'll come back in different days with different eyes and different ways
I'll come back to recollect mine and know always that Ruby Won't Die

Ruby Won't Die
