Ruth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Life is full of accidents my Ruth for me to drag down to the well
I buried so much for you Ruth, that we are both going to hell
But when you burst like a balloon
I was the one that you came to
But now there is nothing I can do
No I can't help you
Ruth
What did you do?
I helped you burn the money Ruth
I stuck the needle in you too
I hid it from your neighbors Ruth
But now there is nothing I can do
And when I think about my youth
I end up thinking about you
And how the world is fucking cruel
But I can't help you
Ruth
What did you do?
No I can't help you
Ruth
What did you do?
No I can't help you.
