Black & Blue Lyrics by Grace Petrie

Mark My Words

0

[Verse 1]
Everybody thinks that all their problems are the worst
Everybody thinks that they're the first to want to die but
I don't think these wounds that you left here on my side
Are gonna lead to suicide, just make me cry and
[Chorus]
I know it's not surprising
I'm the one apologising now
You could beat me black and blue
And I'd still love you
And since you don't find it phasing
When I tell you you're amazing, you
Will beat me black and blue
Just like you always do
And I will still love you
And I will love you
[Verse 2]
When I say I love you, do you understand the word?
Is it one you've never heard?
Well I find it easier not seeing you at all
Than just to see you when you fall, and hear you cry but
[Chorus]
I know it's not surprising
I'm the one apologising now
You could beat me black and blue
And I'd still love you
And since you don't find it phasing
When I tell you you're amazing, you
Will beat me black and blue
Just like you always do
And I will still love you
And I will love you
And I will still love you
[Bridge]
Making arrogance my muse
Making innocence your victim
An empty heart to find
Didn't know what I was missing
Well my heart was never empty
Until you came along
My mind was never tempted
Till I tasted what was wrong
[Chorus]
And I guess it's not surprising
I'm the one apologising now
You could beat me black and blue
And I'd still love you
And since you don't find it charming
When I tell you you're disarming, you
Will beat me black and blue
Just like you always do
And I will still love you
And I will love you
And I will still love you
And I will love you
And I will still love you
Making arrogance my muse (I know it's not surprising)
Making innocence your victim (I'm the one apologising now)
Making arrogance my muse (You could beat me black and blue)
Once again, once again (And I'd still love you)
Making arrogance my muse (And since you don't find it phasing)
Making innocence your victim (When I tell you you're amazing, you)
My innocence your victim, woah (Will beat me black and blue)
Ever since your victim
