Lyrics
HEART SHAPED BRUISE INTRO Every time you lie Every time you cheat It’s no victory It’s our love’s defeat CHORUS There’s a heart-shaped bruise Where my heart should be And this heart-shaped bruise Is absorbing me Ev’ry errant thought Ev’ry stolen look Each and ev’ry entry In your little book Ev’ry small abuse Ev’ry power play Kills the spark inside Turns my love away CHORUS There’s a heart-shaped bruise Where my heart should be The bleeding inside Is consuming me Ev’ry time you whisper Ev’ry time you coo You pull me down Just to satisfy you There’s no salvation There’s no excuse The damage has been done Now my heart’s no use MIDDLE Take it out Cut it out Take it out Cut it out There’s no way forward Our history’s sour What looks like love Is an exercise in power CHORUS There’s a heart-shaped bruise That cannot be redeemed We can’t remove the scars From this shattered dream There’s a heat-shaped bruise Where my heart should be Now it’s in my hands And it’s up to me END Take it out Cut it out Take you out Cut you out Of my life.
