My skin is like a map,
Of where my heart has been
And I can't hide the marks
But it's not a negative thing
So I let down my guard.
Drop my defences, drop down by my clothes
(bridge)
I'm learning to fall
With no safety net, to cushion the blow
(chorus)
I bruise easily
So be gentle when u handle me
There's a mark you leave
Like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily
Can't scratch the surface
Without moving me
Underneath
I bruise easily
I bruise easily
I found you fingerprints
on a glass of wine
Do you know you're leaving them
all over this heart of mine too
But if i never take this leap of faith
I'll never know
(bridge)
So I'm learning to fall
With no safety net, to cushion the blow
(chorus)
I bruise easily
So be gentle when u handle me
There's a mark you leave
Like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily
Can't scratch the surface
Without moving me
Underneath
I bruise easily
I bruise easily
Anyone who can touch you
Can hurt you or heal you
Anyone who can reach you
Can love you or leave you
So be gentle (so be gentle) x2
(chorus) x2
I bruise easily
So be gentle when u handle me
There's a mark you leave
Like a love heart carved on a tree
I bruise easily
Can't scratch the surface
Without moving me
Underneath
I bruise easily
I bruise easily
I bruise easily
I bruise easily
