The Black and Blues
have come to haunt me
In the dead of night
they scream their terror
with all their might
Do you hurt on the inside like I do?
Do you fear what is hidden beneath like I do?
I wonder do you feel it too?

You were so pretty
so innocent and bright
your eyes so honest and true (blue?)
How could I have known
what was the real you?
Do you hurt on the inside like I do?
Do you fear what is hidden beneath like I do?
I wonder do you feel it too?

You took my mind
and turned it into scrambles
You took my heart
and shattered it whole
You planted the seed of doubt
in my soul

It's like a splinter that won't go away
It's like those Black and Blues
that are there to stay
Do you hurt on the inside like I do?
Do you fear what's hidden beneath like I do?
I wonder do you feel it too?
(shame, shame, shame on you)
Shame....
