As we laid motionless, beneath the summer skies
The stars reflected off your brown and teary eyes
I can't help these thoughts, I still drift back sometimes
My heart was in your vice, but you had lost your mind
Like the moonlight peaking through the autumn trees
Your life was such a waste, you were almost on your knees
In a silent prayer, you never made a sound
And now you call for help, but there's no one else around
These cuts and bruises never seem to heal
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
Your tears kept falling before the rainstorm in the dark
And soon your misty eyes extinguished every spark
Blow out the candles on the cake of your despair
I tried to save you, but the smoke was always there
Like the London fog that wraps around the night
You billowed in the air until you drifted out of sight
In the morning light, I knew these things would change
Everything that we held dear was flooded by the rain
These cuts and bruises never seem to heal
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
So tell me now what I should feel
The past was wrong, it's been concealed
Revealed for what it couldn't be, oh no
Let it drop and watch it go, let it fade until you know
Until the feeling always ends up overthrown
These cuts and bruises never seem to heal
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
These cuts and bruises never seem to heal
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
