Bruiser

(album: Ollie Ollie Oxen Free - 2021)

It's been three long months
And I'm starting to lose my patience
I've hit another dead end
And I'm acting on my frustrations
There's a ticking time bomb inside of me

Another heartful tragedy
By the time you hear this song
I'll be long gone
But not forgotten
I hope I'm not forgotten
Not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten

Yeah I've lived a life I'm proud of
I've questioned every move
Been pushed on through
Yeah I've torn myself in more ways than just two
I've split myself into pieces
Can you imagine what I could do
If I were whole through thick and thin
Just my demons me and you
And you

Remembering
All the smiles and all the laughter
All the memories and songs we'd sing
Larger than life all through the night
Nothing could slow us down

Oh my friend
Underneath a star filled sky
I can still hear you laughing yeah man
Bruiser Bass Face bass in hand
You're not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten

Yeah I've lived a life I'm proud of
I've questioned every move
Been pushed on through
Yeah I've torn myself in more ways than just two
I've split myself into pieces
Can you imagine what I could do
If I were whole through thick and thin
Just my demons me and you

So many things I wish that I could tell you
So I will, because you're here, with me
And there's nothing in this world that can change the fact
Of your impact on so many
Bruiser can you hear me?

Yeah man

Yeah I've lived a life I'm proud of
I've questioned every move
Been pushed on through
Yeah I've torn myself in more ways than just two
I've split myself into pieces
Can you imagine what I could do
If I were whole through thick and thin
Just my demons me and you

I've lived a life I'm proud of
I've questioned every move
Been pushed on through
Yeah I've torn myself in more ways than just two
I've split myself into pieces
Can you imagine what I could do
If I were whole through thick and thin
Just my demons me and you
