Black & Blue

Oh I been blue, losin' my head under water
Outta breath, hidden bruises in my brain whoo woah
And all I want is the respect that I can't take, a compliment
It seems so stupid but I can't help it
When these voices take their effect

Oh when I make myself, myself believe it
It's like I, I almost need it
Fallin' with all of my demons yeah

Until I'm black and blue
Blue
I don't know what to do, never seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue
Blue
And maybe I'm afraid, I can't seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue

I got these dreams, I got this vision
My mind won't give me that permission
Whenever good things, they come knockin'
All I want is to let them in

I try make myself, myself believe it
God knows how, how bad I need it
'Round and 'round I tear myself apart
Keep on goin' until I'm black and blue
Blue
I don't know why I do
Never seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue
Blue
And maybe I'm afraid, I can't seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue

Until I'm black and blue
Blue
Until I'm black and blue
Blue

I don't know why I do
Never seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue
Blue
And maybe I'm afraid, I can't seem to let it go
Until I'm black and blue
