My skin is like a map Of where my heart has been And I can't hide the marks But it's not a negative thing So I let down my guard Drop my defences down by my clothes I'm learning to fall With no safety net to cushion the blow I bruise easily So be gentle when you handle me There's a mark you leave Like a love heart carved on a tree I bruise easily Can't scratch the surface without moving me underneath I bruise easily I bruise easily I found your fingerprints Anyone who can touch you Can hurt you or heal you Anyone who can reach you Can love you or leave you So be gentle So be gentle
