Nina Nesbitt – Black & Blue lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, and I make myself, myself believe it
It's like I, I almost need it
Fighting with all of my demons, yeah

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Hey, ooh, hey
Until I'm black and blue
Hey, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
'Til I'm black and blue, blue
Mm

[Chorus]
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
