Bruises Lyrics by AUGUST 08

Pretend It’s Okay

2023

[Verse 1]
You try to leave me in the dark
Starting to question who you are
I wish I knew you from the start
Instead, I'm only seein' stars

[Pre-Chorus]
All that ends with me walkin' in
We don't owe each other nothin'
Chapter's finished, I'm done with you
My heart's not broken, it's just

[Chorus]
Covered in bruises
With so many bruises
Scarred, scarred, scarred, scarred, scarred
Covered in bruises
With so many bruises

[Verse 2]
I saw the red flags before we could even start
Who dangles love at the cost of a trip to Mars?
Your body's callin', a vision, a work of art
As I get closer, Medusa, is who you are

[Pre-Chorus]
All that ends with me walkin'
We don't owe each other nothin'
Chapters finished, I'm down with you
My heart's not broken, it's just

[Chorus]
Covered in bruises
With so many bruises
Scarred, scarred, scarred, scarred, scarred
Covered in bruises
With so many bruises

[Refrain]
Scarred
Scarred

[Outro]
Let the car fog up
I can't pass you up
Nah, nah, I won't gas you up
'Cause you say, you don't need my love
