Black And Blue

Every time
We cross the line
I feel like we’re an inch from the bottom
Every cut
Can bleed for days
But we throw Bandaids at the problem

You toss it off, tell me to take it like a man
But I’ve hid the pain for just as long as I can stand
It’s all the same
Every night, same old fight
With a different blame
Wrong or right, we both lose
In this game

Black and blue, we both bruise
The same way
We both bruise black and blue
Black and Blue
Just let me be
Walk away
I would rather silence than red line
No in between

Is possible
I can see from here that’s a bad sign
You cut me off to try to make yourself look right
Well you lost me, but hey, at least you won the fight
It’s all the same
Every night, same old fight
With a different blame
Wrong or right, we both lose
In this game

Black and blue, we both bruise
The same way
We both bruise black and blue
Black and Blue
Black diamonds, but her heart's the blackest
She's like a marksman blastin’ at me just for target practice
Love you kill for and build towards
But she would rather mix and mingle
With a list of singles like it's Billboard

I can relate to all of this pop music though
Cause after a year Someone Like You suddenly is
Somebody That I Used to Know
I know an orchestra with a portion of horns in it
You got some horns too, neither is a coronet is it?
Words can cut so much deeper than I’d ever try to make you feel

I just won’t let you see me bruise so you assume the pain ain’t real, and you keep it going
It’s all the same
Every night, same old fight
With a different blame
Wrong or right, we both lose
In this game

Black and blue, we both bruise
The same way
We both bruise black and blue
Black and Blue
Black and blue yeah
Black and blue yeah
