Lyrics

Black Lipstick

[Verse 1]

I was looking for something

Or maybe someone

Hope a relation

Or revelation

She smelled of temptation

Made me impatient

I had to say hey

I have to see her

[Chorus]

She wore black lipstick

Call her renegade

Leather jacket on, collar high

Couldn't see her face

She ice skated on my heart

Couldn't feel the blade

Think I'm color blind

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (I'm bleeding)

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (She wore, she wore)

[Verse 2]

My heart is running

Running, running

Away from love when

She called me apart

From afar and the distance

Without saying a word from her lips

She had me intrigued

She wore

[Chorus]

She wore black lipstick

Call her renegade

Leather jacket on, collar high

Couldn't see her face

She ice skated on my heart

Couldn't feel the blade

Think I'm color blind

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (I'm bleeding)

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (She wore, she wore)

Oh I'm bleeding

[Bridge]

Oh I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Oh I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding yeah

Oh I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding yeah

[Chorus]

She wore black lipstick

Call her renegade

Leather jacket on, collar high

Couldn't see her face

She ice skated on my heart

Couldn't feel the blade

Think I'm color blind

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (I'm bleeding)

'Cause I'm bleeding black and grey (She wore, she wore)
