Story Behind The Song
My friend Oreste gave me the guitar part and I wrote the lyrics and melody over it. All about a girl I once knew who loved me and left me. Tragic stuff and great muse for a song.

Lyrics
All these words mean nothing
they're just aches and pains to you
so I pour out my soul
see what you can do
and I call these my triggers
cause they shoot me back to you
you're my sweet sucker punch
black and blue
black and blue
and I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
These cuts are still open
they still smart with the salt from your skin
and you can't comprehend
what your touch does
to my heart within
and it cost me my conscience
and it cost me the light
sat under the stars
on a cold and lonely night
and I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
and I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
I want you to hear me
