I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you, yeah,
Every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you
But every time I fell for
permanently black and blue,
Permanently blue for you.
The yellow is because I am on a colored clothing kick right now.
The zippered black is because I feel like a BumbleBee.
The cross is because I must represent.
The bruises are because I fell on a slippery ocean rock.
I grabbed some frozen strawberries
So I could ice your bruising knees
But frozen things they all unfreeze
And now I taste like....
All those frozen strawberries
I used to chill your bruising knees,
Hot July ain't good to me
I'm pink and black and blue for you.
I am packed! (But I should probably bring some Advil.)
I am camera-less! (Because some bad experiences are never overcome.)
And I have a icon folder BURSTING at the seams, ready to be partially posted as a representatice of all the things and feelings I expect I'll feel this week. (Those will be in Post Next.)
I got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue
--Chairlift, Bruises
