I'm holding out my heart in my trembling hands
I'm holding out my heart, so I'll understand
It's home is on my sleeve most days
It's home is on my sleeve, right here for you to take
Hey, I'm black and blue, black and blue
I'm falling through the cracks,
So I'm turning back and I'm not coming for you
Your words, they're in my mouth, a puppet's muse
Your words, they're in my mouth, someone else's news
A voice inside me shakes to tell the truth
A voice inside me shakes to tell the truth
Hey, I'm black and blue, black and blue
I"m falling through the cracks,
So I'm turning back, I'm black and blue, black and blue
I'm falling through the cracks,
So I'm turning back and I'm not coming for you
