easily bruised lend me an ear i ll tell you a story bout a man who didn t know how to be joined a travelling circus from pei to bc i was playing dead every morning i was taking dives every night someone came and swept me off my feet in midflight now without a love i really got nothing without a love i d hang up my shoes it d be a world of suffering if this one i was ever to lose so i m hanging on with all of my power i m hanging on as tight as a noose around the midnight hour she said remember that i m easily bruised i ve had everything that i wanted had so much i threw it away she could see that what i needed was never there anyway now everything around me is shifting i m running like a child through a maze but i m never lost completely cause an angel keeps me safe lord without a love i m dead in the water without a love my aim is untrue my blood gets hotter and hotter at the thought of leaving this angel blue i m hanging on with all of my power it s looking like our bodies might fuse and when our cries got louder she said remember that i m easily bruised when i can t let go and if i love too hard i ll hurt my baby so now everything makes sense in the moment and the moment s independent of time but who decides where truth resides your guess is as good as mine so have another sip of the good stuff and have another round on me if this moment lasts forever then the truth we might just see but without a love i don t have an inkling i d be howling every night at the moon and if the stars stop twinkling the end will sure be coming soon so i m hanging on with all of my power in the garden where we re all free to choose any fruit or flower she said remember that i m easily bruised remember that i m easily bruised remember that i m easily bruised
