Like Bruises
Every moment holds a question
Every look a murmur of the pain
That burdens every step I make
Through a life disturbed and blurred by hate.
Here's a thought that haunts me every day
That a person's fate is pre-arranged
And though I question every moment
The answer'll always be the same.
And I just can't seem to face this house
It's like I feel you flinch when I kiss your mouth.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am is no more.
All my enemies are memories
Every one embedded in my brain
You put up walls to keep your ghosts at bay
What use are walls with evil this ingrained.
In every inch and fibre of my being
Twisting thoughts to pain and whispering
Rumours of a faded love
It's breaking point I've had enough.
And I just can't seem to face this house
It's like I feel you flinch when I kiss your mouth.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am is no more.
The hall light flickers cruelly
As I search the sheets for sleep
But it's nowhere to be found here
In the blackest night.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am
All that I am
All that I am is no more.
Every look a murmur of the pain
That burdens every step I make
Through a life disturbed and blurred by hate.
Here's a thought that haunts me every day
That a person's fate is pre-arranged
And though I question every moment
The answer'll always be the same.
And I just can't seem to face this house
It's like I feel you flinch when I kiss your mouth.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am is no more.
All my enemies are memories
Every one embedded in my brain
You put up walls to keep your ghosts at bay
What use are walls with evil this ingrained.
In every inch and fibre of my being
Twisting thoughts to pain and whispering
Rumours of a faded love
It's breaking point I've had enough.
And I just can't seem to face this house
It's like I feel you flinch when I kiss your mouth.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am is no more.
The hall light flickers cruelly
As I search the sheets for sleep
But it's nowhere to be found here
In the blackest night.
Like bruises on skin
Words unspoken sink in
Derailing all that I am
All I could be
You mark this bruise on my soul
Words unspoken take hold
All that I am
All that I am
All that I am is no more.
