Couldn't keep the swelling down after each mighty blow Damage that I've taken is more than you'll ever know Marking up my body like a priceless work of art Blackening like charcoal setting fire to my heart Time will not give me a break so Why should it care if I ache These wounds don't ever seem to heal Can you really live if you don't feel Throw the fight stitch me up Pretend that I'm enough After my fears come true You'll color me in shades of blue Hold me up high above the ground Staggering but not down and out In this life there are no excuses Give a smile as you count the bruises Trying everything to keep from losing all my strength But the universe keeps breaking me at such great length Wear me down until it becomes way too hard to breathe Falling to the concrete bravery is skin deep Time cannot correct the past but I will prove I'm built to last These scars just show how far I've come Stretching over me but feel so numb Throw the fight stitch me up Pretend that I'm enough After my fears come true You'll color me in shades of blue Quit playing games with yourself now it's never better But you're far from your last bow it doesn't matter If you're broken from self-doubt find the pattern Turn it into something beautiful Hold me up high above the ground Staggering but not down and out In this life there are no excuses Give a smile as you count the bruises Keep in mind when you're sick of it You can be your own ultimate In this life there are no excuses Give a smile as you count the bruises I'm enough
