If we take into account Joey's comment that all three albums form a trilogy, and ruin is "the thing that ties everything together," then we have a story that begins with
Run to show that love's worth running to
and ends with
If I don't make it back from where I've gone Just know I loved you all along
Excuse me while I slowly but surely descend into madness about that.

One of the many things that destroys me about the song Ruin is the way it parallels soĀ many other songs from all the various albums.Ā
We have bricks and stones echoing the bricks and stones in Wild Blue Yonder. We have the wallpaper like in Two Minutes. We haveĀ āI wish that Iād been braveā like theĀ āpeople just pretending to be braveā in Little Miss Why So. We haveĀ āIāll sing silenceā like in Drinking Song. There are metaphors of fire throughout The Amazing Devilās songs in everything from Secret Worlds to New York Torch Song to Wild Blue Yonder, making theĀ āwreck of all weāve burntā even more poigniant. The piano itself echoes that in Two Minutes and Farewell Wanderlust.
Perhaps there is no particular significance to this. Perhaps it says something about the nature of relationships and of life that so many different stories could be seen as prologues to Ruin, to this story of hearbreak and heart-building. Regardless, it makes me emotional every time.
happy ruin anniversary
@soundsfaebutokay I accidentally answered the wrong question in reply to your first ask and then deleted it and now your ask is gone... But I took a screenshot before so I'm replying like this!
4. Whatās your favorite lyrical part of the song?
From a purely artistic point this is one of my favorite parts:
You don't have to be brilliant She says as she scrolls Through the rolls that the millions Of hollering hollow folk know how to play, it's ok
It's one of these verses where you can really tell that Joey has actually truly studied this language. Unfortunately, I did not, so I can't even truly pinpoint what it is, but it just rolls off the tongue. The riming of scrolls with rolls in the middle of the line, the entirety of "hollering hollow folk", all the o sounds that just... work together. You can truly tell how carefully these lines were crafted.
5. Whatās your favorite instrumental part of the song?
The drums after the sudden dynamic change after the first "You are in the earth of me". And to be honest? Simply because that run up and down the toms just sounds so so so much fun to play and I will have to try to replicate it sometime
Yāall Iām staring at the new logoĀ and it says TAD and is shaped like a heart... aĀ dear heart, perhaps?
