Velvet Bruises (Acoustic)

Verse 1 Your fingers trace where the shadows hide I wear the proof just beneath the light Soft as velvet, it blooms in the skin A secret garden of every sin Pre-Chorus You never ask, you never see The marks you left still follow me Chorus Velvet bruises, quiet and deep They tell the story I couldn’t speak Underneath the silence, under the skin Velvet bruises remember again Verse 2 I cover up, but they never fade A map of the love we never made Each fading mark is a lullaby Sung by the ghost of a darker sky Pre-Chorus You never ask, you never see The marks you left still follow me Chorus Velvet bruises, quiet and deep They tell the story I couldn’t speak Underneath the silence, under the skin Velvet bruises remember again Bridge Every color bleeds away But the memory stays Soft as velvet, sharp as pain I wear your shadow like a stain Final Chorus Velvet bruises, quiet and deep They tell the story I couldn’t speak Underneath the silence, under the skin Velvet bruises remember again
