VERSE 1:
Pour a cup of tears and swallow the pain
Put on a coat to brave the rain outside
Put on a face but know I'm dead inside
Tell the stories but twist the ending
Spent my whole life just pretending it's fine
Tell everybody you're fine

And they wonder but they don't say
not their business anyway

CHORUS:
But they don't know, no, they cant see
what you really do to me
behind the doors and in the dark
broken bones and a bruised heart

VERSE 2:
Blame it all on being clumsy
Laugh it off like its a funny joke
Even when my arm is broke
Then one day he'll say he's sorry
That's enough to remind me he's mine
This hurting love is mine

CHORUS:
But they don't know, no they cant see
What you really do to me
Behind the doors and in the dark
Broken bones and a bruising heart

ENDING VERSE:
Then one day
It goes too far
My shallow grave
In the backyard
Why i stayed? I cant tell you
But now i'm gone I know it's true
Behind the doors and in the dark
You should not hide a bruising heart
Tell everybody its not fine.
