"Black And Blue"

I'm trying to connect
But these walls you resurrect, they shut me down
And the feeling they reflect
Is starting to infect and filter out
I want to be direct
No message to dissect, I'll let it sound
A mutual respect
For the road that each of us walk down

I'm trying to share my heart
But no one seems to want it, want it
I'm trying to share my heart
But no one seems to want it, want it

So this is called the surface
Conversation without purpose, substance-less
Setting where the curve is
Concerned with our own burdens, nothing less
This isn't what your worth is
You are still a person, heart and breath

I'm trying to share my heart
But no one seems to want it, want it
I'm trying to share my heart
But no one seems to want it, want it
And it's breaking me apart
Cause no one seems to want it, want it
Why is it so hard
Why is it so hard

[instrumental]

Will I ever find the truth
Is there a soul that really aims for You
Cause no one really seems to understand
And the ones I share a mind don't have me in their plans
So I offer my heart
Black and blue

I'm trying to share my heart
But you don't seem to want it
I want to see yours too
Fully bloomed and unguarded
Not an easy thing to do
Yeah, I've been hurt too
So let's hold each other
Black and blue
