Blues and Blacks Won't Fade Unless You Tell Them Too
she's black and blue,
often times renewed.
she must be invisible to you,
hiding beneath the layers,
an unsuspecting rue.
once, twice, it was just his mistake.
a slip of the hand and a lashing of the tongue.
what have you done?
what have you done?
you're drunk, drowning it out with rum.
but it's never gone, you just can't stay.
or you won't last long.
run, run, run.
please run.
