Bruised

Verse 1

I see your shadow in the corners of my mind (in my mind)

Words you said linger, replayed a thousand times (times, oooh)

Tried to hold on, but your love just slipped away (slipped away)

Now I’m chasing memories that fade with the day

Every touch I miss (miss), every whisper I crave (crave)

Left me in silence, enduring all this pain (pain, pain, pain)

Pre-Chorus

Thought we were forever, thought we’d never fall

Now I’m picking up pieces you left on the floor

Heart’s still beating, but it’s bruised inside (in-side)

Can’t forget the way you said goodbye (oooh)

Chorus

Why’d you have to hurt me, leave me feeling so low?

All the love I gave you, now my heart’s turned cold

Late nights I’m crying, trying to find my way

Bruised heart, broken soul, but I still love you anyway (oooh)

Verse 2

Pictures on the wall whisper softly your name (whisper your name, oooh)

Smiles that we shared now can’t feel the same

We used to shine so bright, then vanished in the night

I reach for you, but you’re gone from my sight (oooh)

Every song reminds me of what we had

Every laugh now cuts, yeah, it makes me so sad (so, so sad)

Pre-Chorus

Thought we were forever, thought we’d never fall

Now I’m picking up pieces you left on the floor

Heart’s still beating, but it’s bruised inside (in-side)

Can’t forget the way you said goodbye (oooh)

Chorus

Why’d you have to hurt me, leave me feeling so low?

All the love I gave you, now my heart’s turned cold

Late nights I’m crying, trying to find my way

Bruised heart, broken soul, but I’ll survive someday (oooh)

Bridge

I’ll rebuild these walls, piece by piece tonight

Learn to love myself again, hold my heart so tight

Tears may fall, but they’re washing away the pain

Someday I’ll smile, I’ll dance again in the rain (oooh)

Outro

Bruised heart, yeah, I’m healing slow

Love was lost, but I won’t let go

Late nights fade, morning light will show

Even broken hearts can learn to grow (oooh, oooh)
