Black And Blue

(album: I Swear It's The Truth - 2012)

There's nothing crazy, nothing new
Always knowing I wasn't good enough for you
You were the diamonds, and I the thief, ooh

You said you loved me, but just for kicks
Another name on a long, long list
You left me broken, beaten blind, black and blue

This ain't the first time, it won't be the last time
I'm hoping that sometime, someone will break your heart
When you're barely breathing, looking for a reason
Hope he says he's just leaving, from the very start
Hope it tears you apart

You build 'em up then you toss 'em 'round
You light a match and you burn 'em down
Then you lay 'em in the cold, cold ground, black and blue

This ain't the first time, it won't be the last time
I'm hoping that sometime, someone will break your heart
When you're barely breathing, looking for a reason
Hope he says he's just leaving, from the very start
Hope it tears you apart

Cause I might look alright on the outside
But I know it ain't true, black and blue

Cause this ain't the first time, it won't be the last time
I'm hoping that sometime, someone will break your heart
When you're barely breathing, looking for a reason
Hope he says he's just leaving, from the very start
Hope it tears you apart
