Bruises Lyrics

She grew up in central PA

Two hour delay

Snow froze last night

All on the turnpike

Drove on the freeway

Head-thumping headache

She's the one I fell for

Lust for adventure

Said her parents never let her watch SpongeBob

Laughing at the jokes on the stick of my ice pop

Stole my soul you could say she had a tear-drop

Tattoo on her face as her eyes start

Looking at me

Running in circles plastic bag in the breeze

I go where she takes me 'hundred eighty degrees

I go back where I came from now it's funny to me

How I got what I paid for

Kisses on my face

Leaving bruises on my brain

Sick of saying I can't change

Past my limits that's ok

She threw a dart at the map and went to get a passport

Left with nothing but her jeans and a JanSport

Sending little notes that I write 'till my hands sore

No time to read while she's off on her world tour

And she never looked back

Now I'm looking for a needle in a hay stack

I just want peace I don't really want payback

Lace up tight and I run to the train track

Looking at me

Running in circles plastic bag in the breeze

I go where she takes me 'hundred eighty degrees

I go back where I came from now it's funny to me

How I got what I paid for

Kisses on my face

Leaving bruises on my brain

Sick of saying I can't change

Past my limits that's ok
