Lyrics
This Is Not A Bruise
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.
The piano from the movie,
Is stuck on a minor chord.
Don't try and tell me something,
Then say that you forgot it.
The porchlights turn off,
But it's fine.
I don't need to see your pretty face,
To feel, happy, for smiles.
I'm counting on you,
Just for now.
To say cutie things, to me,
Like "hey, nice teeth"
And you'll catch cold,
By not using bow ties,
To wrap your sentances.
Incentive to wake at 4am,
To write poems with eyeliner.
Don't wake [up]
Don't wake [up]
It's too late to fall back to sleep.
Fuck lullabyes, lets harmonise.
[The stars on your cieling glow]
If all I did,
If all I said.
This is not a bruise from falling for you.
This is not a bruise from falling for you.
Look close, as if you care.
[this, bruise]
This is not a bruise,
From falling for you,
This is not a bruise.
This is not a bruise,
From falling for you,
This is not a bruise.
We fall, we break,
And take and watch us fall away.
We fall, we break,
And take and watch us fall away
We Fall, we fall, we fall.
We fall...
We fall..
I'm counting on you,
Just for now.
To say cutie things, to me,
Like "hey, nice teeth"
And you'll catch cold,
By not using bow ties,
To wrap your sentances.
This is not a bruise,
From falling for you,
This is not a bruise.
This is not a bruise,
From falling for you,
From falling for you.
This is not a.. [bruise]
