Heart-shaped Bruise

Tell me now, or am i only dreaming?

Tell me now, or are you only teasing?

I felt the cold hard facts of life

Five degrees from freezing

Does it amuse you to always hurt me so?

I try my best, it's not enough

Should i give up and let you go?



There's nothing more to take from me

There's nothing more to give you dear

There's nothing else that i can lose

Except this heart-shaped bruise



It will fade from purple to black

It will fade just as the day was lost into twilight



Tell me now or am i only dreaming?

You said that you'd be mine for life

And now you say you're leaving

If i could hold you once more before you go



When i approach you you just lash out

Should i give up and let you...



What more is there to take from me?

There's nothing more to give you dear

There's nothing more that i can lose

Except this heart-shaped bruise
