Ben Folds Bruised Lyrics

Bruised Lyrics

Oh no, love just leaves you bruised

If you want to know

You find something to lose



The world won't turn until something breaks

Who will make the first last mistake

You say the good things come

To those who wait



Into the spiral

Your world and my world

It's never final

Love just leaves you bruised



I went because you said you'd be there

A box of candy, smoke in your hair

And I didn't know, I didn't care

But now I know

Love just leaves you bruised



Oh no, did love just leave you screwed?

You got to go slow

'Cause love just leaves you bruised



Into the spiral

Your world or my world

It's never final

Love just leaves you bruised



I went because you said you'd be there

A box of candy, smoke in your hair

When I didn't know, I didn't care

But now I know, now I know

Love just leaves you bruised

And I've got the scars to prove it



I went because you said you'd be there

A box of candy, smoke in your hair

Explain it to me again and again

Like I care, like I care

Love just leaves you



The world won't turn until something breaks

Who will make the first last mistake?

Good things come to those who wait

Well, I can't wait



I went because you said you'd be there

A box of candy, smoke in your hair

And I didn't know, I didn't care

Now I know
