Oh, I've been low, losing my head
Underwater, out of breath
Healing bruises in my brain, oh-woah
And all I want is their respect
But I can't take a compliment
It seems so stupid but I can't help it
When these voices take their effect
Oh, and I make myself, myself believe it
It's like I, I almost need it
Fighting with all of my demons, yeah
Until I'm black and blue, blue
I don't know why I do
Never seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue, blue
And maybe I'm afraid
I can't seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue
I've got these dreams, I've got this vision
My mind won't give me the permission
Whenever good things, they come a-knocking
All I want is to let them in
I try to make myself, myself believe it
God knows how, how bad I need it
Round and round, I tear myself apart
Keep on going
Until I'm black and blue, blue
I don't know why I do
Never seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue, blue
And maybe I'm afraid
I can't seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue
Hey, ooh, hey
Until I'm black and blue
Hey, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
'Til I'm black and blue, blue
Mm
Until I'm black and blue, blue
I don't know why I do
Never seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue, blue
And maybe I'm afraid
I can't seem to let it go (let it go)
Until I'm black and blue
