Teeth on my shoulder
Salt on my skin
You mark your answer
Where I let you in

Nails in the bedsheet
Bite through the doubt
Every small fingerprint
Spells me out

Bruise me
Where I can’t see
Color me quiet
Deep underneath
Push me
Right through my heat
Leave little messages
Buried in me (oh)

Hands on my rib cage
Counting each breath
You make a language
Out of the mess

Kiss like a warning
Soft
Then it stings
You say you’re gentle
I know what that means

Bruise me
Where I can’t see
Color me quiet
Deep underneath
Push me
Right through my heat
Leave little messages
Buried in me (yeah)

Circle my wrists
Trace every scar
Say it again
“Mine” in the dark
If it’s gonna hurt
Make it feel true
If I’m gonna fall
Let it be you

Bruise me
Where I can’t see
Color me quiet
Deep underneath
Push me
Right through my heat
Leave little messages
Buried in me
Bruise me
Slow
Then deep
Hide all your answers
Under my skin
