Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Man made of stone
Says my delusions
Got golden bones, bulletproof soul
Don't mind the bruises
[PreChorus]
Got buried wounds and battle scars
The speed of light in sorrow's arms
Dead of night, can't shake the ghosts
The ones that last still hurt the most
[Chorus]
Shadows on the back seat, taint the glass
Drive-through memories, hit me fast
I got bruises
Assault and battery, black and blue
Shiner in the dark, on my heart, got the marks to prove it
Don't mind the bruises
[Verse 2]
Don't stitch me up
(Don't stitch me up)
Don't dab me down
(Don't dab me down)
I'll eat the mud
(I'll eat the mud)
I'll fight for blood
(I'll fight for blood)
Come back around
[PreChorus]
Through thick and thin, wear diamond skin
Inside, I am shattering
Helping hands walked out the door
Say goodnight, face it all
[Chorus]
Shadows on the back seat, taint the glass
Drive-through memories, hit me fast
I got bruises
Assault and battery, black and blue
Shiner in the dark, on my heart, got the marks to prove it
[Bridge]
Don't mind the bruises
Yeah
Don't mind the bruises
[Chorus]
Shadows on the back seat, taint the glass
Drive-through memories, hit me fast
I got bruises
Assault and battery, black and blue
Shiner in the dark, on my heart, got the marks to prove it
Don't mind the bruises
