Story Behind The Song
A relationship I was in and out of twice, a glutton for punishment. But we love each other very much, Still. Where with every lie or mistrust came an ache. After false promises of never doing it again they just turn into BRUISES. I felt so hurt with every lie and after a while BRUISE upon BRUISE turns one into a miserable person. I grew up believing that love could conquer all but it has to be coming from both sides. And the whole idea of putting on a happy face so no one else gets bothered by your feelings is crap. I felt it was a better choice to step out of it and call it a day(3yrs to be exact, dumb i know) but not without letting him know how I felt.
Song Description
She is Finally getting her moment to let him know how she feels. As she is angrily spewing her feelings of mistreatment, she is able to tell him from the heart with truth, force, and dignity. She really thought she was his soul mate and that she has a heart of gold. She has had it with the pefect couple masquerade to their friends, the public and to themselves. She has pulled the mask off and thrown in the towel but is leaving with her self intact and the veil lifted.

Lyrics
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
You keep spinning I'm done riding nauseous as fuck.
Seems just like your moving forward toward and stuck.
BRUISED I Feel It
Pretend to deal with.
They can't see it.
Let's make believe it.
Imperfection doesn't exist,
A nick or scratch can mend with a kiss,
Life will slam your truth when your face down,
Gasp for breath so stunned don't turn around
Swat me
Paw me
Bite me
Lick me
Ow!
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
Cooked, Confused, lies boiling over can't feel the heat.
Hurt and beat, ashamed so sick of tricks give me treats.
BRUISED You feel it.
Don't wanna Be it.
You can't see it.
Just make believe it.
Don't live inside that beautiful mind
Darting, digging what will you find?
House rules never rule, unwrap your soul.
Curse me
Scold me
Play me
Love me
Now!
Smoke gets in your eyes and clouds your sound
Like Jack you broke your crown I tumble down
Misplaced Soul mate
Heart Of Gold
Speculation
Hesitation
There's the door
Can't wait to go
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
Hey, Ho
Hammer in pull nail out this hole's really deep
Blinking eyes, this pain inside for my soul to keep
BRUISED we feel it
Let's make a deal with
We can heal it
Don't wanna be it

Love All
