Bruises on Your Heart
Unseen Heartache: Concealed Bruises Revealed
Lyrics
They see you smile and they see you laughing
People observe you appearing happy and carefree.
They see someone with not a care in the world
Others perceive an individual without worries.
But they don't see, what I see
The speaker acknowledges a hidden aspect not visible to others.
No they don't see the bruises on your heart
People are unaware of the emotional pain the person is experiencing.
I look in your eyes and I see everything you can't hide oh the pain within
Through the eyes, the speaker detects concealed pain and struggles.
You might forget for a little while,
Temporary moments of forgetting the pain may occur.
'Coz now and then they fade the bruises on your heart
Occasional respite occurs as the emotional wounds fade.
Gonna make a brand new start
Expresses a determination to begin anew.
But this time looking out for your heart
A commitment to guard and prioritize the person's emotional well-being.
Over there not far away the sun is shining 'cross paradise bay
Describes a distant, beautiful place symbolizing hope and positivity.
For ten long years you've been holding on
Highlights a decade of enduring hardships and challenges.
Keeping your dreams safely locked away
Refers to keeping personal aspirations hidden or protected.
At forty-two she packed her bags, that's all she took and bruises on her heart
A woman decides to leave at the age of forty-two, carrying emotional scars.
At forty-two she packed her bags that's all she took and bruises on her heart
Reiterates the woman's departure with minimal belongings and emotional wounds.
That's all she took and bruises on her heart
Emphasizes the simplicity of what the woman took, highlighting emotional bruises.
That's all she took and bruises on her heart
Repeats the notion of departing with emotional scars.
