bruised fruit

Singer:st. paul & the broken bones

blood is what i can't escape

harbored in the dna

finger on a trigger now

figuring out just how did we get this far

how did it get so hard

twinkle in your eye is gone

you did nothing right

you did nothing wrong

there's pictures of you on the wall

but no one seems to recall the love that you gave

the love that you forsake

and i want you to know

you won't cry alone

you're in me when i stay

you're in me when i bleed

you're in me when i pray

you're in me when i leave

oh yeah

till the lights go out some day

tangle in a southern state

wrestling with a little thing

urgency inside your eyes

wishing that somehow did we get this far

how did it get oh so hard

bruised fruit on the kitchen floor

gravity we can't escape

teach me to be all alone

teach me to belong to nothing but blood

oh nothing

oh nothing

nothing

nothing

oh

but blood

nothing but blood

and i want you to know

you won't cry alone

you're in me when i sting

you're in me when i bleed

you're in me when i pray

you're in me when i leave

till the lights go out some day

you're in me when i sting

you're in me when i bleed

you're in me when i pray

you're in me when i leave alone

yes you are

yes you are

till the lights go out some day
