Ruby Red - Heather Nova

I've got a ruby red desire 
Like a virus like my last hope 

I've got a ruby red desire 
I've got to hear the red bird sing 
I've got to rip this cord 
And rinse this lazy blood 
Clear a path and walk away 

I've been waiting for the sky to fall 
I've been worried I could lose it all 
I've been waiting for the safety net 
Tell myself that I'm not ready yet 

And every memory's a dream 
And each uncertainty reminds me why 
I saw a kid outside playing by a moongate 
Making paper things that fly 

I've been waiting for the sky to fall 
I've been worried I could lose it all 
I've been waiting for the safety net 
Tell myself that [m not ready yet 

I want to live ... 

I've been waiting for the sky to fall 
I've been worried I could lose it all 
I've been waiting for the safety net 
Tell myself that I'm not ready yet 

I want to live ...
