These bruises are my burdens
They are not for you to bear
I keep the colours at bay with a smile and a sweater

You are not strong enough to hold this weight
The weight of my broken soul, crumbled into a million pieces
You are only one person, I am only one girl

The bathroom, the bedroom, the couch in the basement
They all make me sad now, they all give me bruises

But you are only one person and I am only one girl
We will love and we will break
Don't fix me, fix yourself
And for the love of God,
Heal your bruises, not mine
