I fought right in, silence it shrives
I cry for .
Here with you now.

And you wait
You carry the waves
To the world.
One in the sand,
Carrying the waves

We are ruins, collapsing sand
For ages to . and stand
So leave when you can,
what is the chance to fall?

One in the sand,
Carrying the waves
to the world.

All that you .you and me
I felt the fast falling sea
into the last in this lead
Are you the last in between?
Are you the rain?
Are you the rain?
Are you the wave?
Are you the change?

One in the sand,
Carrying the waves
to the world.

One in the sand,




Carrying the waves
to the world.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Pink Frost's song "Ruins" evoke a sense of melancholia and a contemplation of existence. The first stanza seems to describe loneliness and isolation, as the singer fights to keep silent and is crying out for someone who is now present with them. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, as it delves into more introspective themes.


The chorus, "We are ruins, collapsing sand, for ages to erode and stand, so leave when you can, what is the chance to fall?" speaks to the transience and fragility of human existence. The imagery of "ruins" suggests a sense of decay and impermanence, while the repetition of "collapsing sand" emphasizes the fleeting quality of time. The line "what is the chance to fall?" implies a sense of resignation to the inevitability of failure or death, but also perhaps a sense of acceptance and peace in letting go.


The final stanza is a series of questions that seems to be directed towards the listener. The imagery of rain, wave, and change suggests a sense of motion and transformation, with the singer perhaps asking if the listener is the catalyst for this change or simply an observer. The repeated line "one in the sand, carrying the waves to the world" suggests that regardless of one's role, all individuals play a part in shaping the world around them.


Overall, "Ruins" is a reflective and introspective song that explores themes of mortality and existence. The repeated imagery of sand, waves, and ruins creates a sense of impermanence and transience. However, the song also seems to suggest a sense of connection and meaning in the collective experience of being human.
