Bruises - Ellise

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

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

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

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 gone blind

At least you’re mine, the truth is

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

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

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
