Bruises

(album: is this what i look like? - 2022)

Some euphoria
For the dull and compromised
Soaked in glory of
Ghosts of your past
But you can't have mine

Was it all enough
For the demons in your mind
Can you see me now?
Pushing a bruise
Like that's just fine

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time

Some euphoria
For the numb and paralysed
Delve into the night
Biting the hand that feeds you
Straight lies

Is it hard to trust
Even your internal thoughts?
Do you see me now?
Pushing a bruise like that's just fine
Pushing a bruise like that's just fine

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time

Pushing a bruise like that's just fine

Voices in my head again
Can't pretend in innocent
They always tell me to finish it
Cause I don't know what my limit is
They break me down
And throw me out
I know you probably hate me now
Can't save me now
When it all comes down
Just let me hit the ground

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time

Is this what you wanted
A clearer state of mind
Better bite the bullet
Press down on
Bruises like wine
Heals better with time
