About

“Thru the Eyes of Ruby” is about Corgan’s soon to be (at the time) ex-wife Chris Fabian. Many of the songs off Mellon Collie were about Fabian and how Corgan wanted to break free from her. He was sure the feeling was mutual, and this song is about convincing her so.

Thru the Eyes of Ruby Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wrap me up in always
And drag me in with maybes
Your innocence is treasure, your innocence is death
Your innocence is all I have

[Pre-Chorus]
Breathin' underwater
And livin' under glass

[Chorus]
And if you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears

[Verse 2]
I believe in never
I believe in all the way
But belief is not to notice, belief is just some faith
And faith can't help you to escape

[Bridge 1]
And with this ring I wed thee true
And with this ring I wed thee now
And with this ring I play so dead
'Cause no one's askin' for the truth
So let me tell you

[Chorus]
If you spin your love around
The secrets of your dreams
You may find your love is gone
And is not quite what it seemed
To appear to disappear
Beneath all your darkest fears

[Bridge 2]
To the revelations of fresh-faced youth
No one will come to save you
So speak your peace in the murmurs drawn
But youth is wasted on the young

[Verse 3]
Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate
My love for you just can't explain why
We're forever frozen, forever beautiful
Forever lost inside ourselves

[Outro]
The night has come to hold us young
The night has come to hold us young
The night has come to hold us young
The night has come to hold us young
The night has come to hold us young
The night has come to hold, us, young

[Instrumental Outro]

As Corgan writes in the liner notes, his frustrations with his bandmates becomes very apparent:

The last of our long and overly constructed,
epic songs; I even said as much at the time, thinking we’d never bother to do another. I approached ‘Ruby’ with real weariness, knowing the amount of work it...
