Mysterious Bruises

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've had one Zirtec, two Advil

With the drink that made me feel invincible

I don't know how I managed to do this

But I woke up this morning covered in bruises

I only dance to songs I like

So I was sat down most the night

I don't know how I managed to do this

I woke up this morning covered in bruises

Hahahaha

I found a bruise on my arm, one on my knee

I can feel some more in a place I can't see

Is this a new bruise, or has it been there forever?

When did I do it, I can't remember

Can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I don't know how I managed to do this

But I woke up this morning covered in bruises

I'd finally decided to tell you how I felt

I mistakenly thought that the drink would help

I don't know what happened

The planets weren't aligned

I kept giving you a wink

You kept missing the sign

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I can't remember anything I've done

I fought the floor and the floor won

I finally managed to unravel the plot

It's not a happy ending, but it's the best that I've got

I woke up this morning covered in bruises

One Zirtec, two Advil are gonna get me through this

I finally managed to unravel the plot

It's not the happiest of endings, but it's the best that I've got

I finally managed to unravel the plot

It's not a happy ending, but it's the best that I've got

I had one Zirtec, two Advil

With the drink that made me feel invincible

I had one Zirtec, two Advil

Then I bounced around, just like a pinball

I had one Zirtec, two Advil

With the drink that made me feel invincible

I had one Zirtec, two Advil

Then I bounced around, just like a pinball
