Bruises

[Music Video Inro, Spoken] Home I let you into mine The place I've lived forever The body I'll one day die in, held hostage My brain and heart both crawling with the disease of you It festers deeper and attaches itself to me in ways that seem almost impossible to break It's as if i need the pain to keep me whole [Verse 1] Black and blue, I'm on the edge Forgave you with your hands around my neck You steal my breath, you throw me away I'm only left with bruises Always played too close to fire I thought I saw the devil in your eyes You pull me down, I can't act surprised I know you're kind, the truth is [Pre-Chorus] No chains, no ropes Don't need 'em, I'm not going home Can't be alone You hurt me and I pull you close [Chorus 1] I can't tell you why When you kill me with a smile I don't wanna lose it Wish I could unchoose it All I have are bruises Let you see inside my mind Got no tears behind my eyes I don't wanna skew it Wish I could undo it All I have are bruises [Verse 2] Black and blue, I still regret Forgive you even when I know what's next But I'm not scared, I'm outta my head Lay down to rest with bruises Cross my heart and hope to die I knew I saw the devil in your eyes If love is hell, I guess I tell lies At least you're mine, the truth is [Pre-Chorus] No chains, no ropes Don't need 'em, I'm not going home Can't be alone You hurt me and I pull you close [Chorus 1] I can't tell you why When you kill me with a smile I don't wanna lose it Wish I could unchoose it All I have are bruises Let you see inside my mind Got no tears behind my eyes I don't wanna skew it Wish I could undo it All I have are bruises [Chorus 2] I can't tell you why I'd let you kill me with a smile I don't wanna lose it Wish I could unchoose it All I have are bruises Wish you saw inside my mind I got no tears behind my eyes I don't wanna skew it Wish I could undo it All I have are bruises
