I step into the spotlight
As insecure
As a child in the schoolyard
I was before
While I learn to hide my face
And shut my mouth
I learned what solitude is about
I learned what solitude is about
The world
Beat this heart
From red
To black and blue
Black and blue
While the laghter never leaves you
It multiplies
You can sense it in the smiles
Of pa**ers-by
Well I tried to rise above the
Doubt in me
That one day I may find something
That one day I may find something
The world
Beat this heart
From red
To black and blue
Black and blue
I never found
The time
It took to heal these wounds
I'm black and blue
Maybe love could be the answer
Maybe I should just let go
Of this pain that's like a cancer
Of the things I can't control
Maybe love
Maybe love
Maybe love
The world
Beat this heart
From red
To black and blue
Black and blue
I never found
The time
It took to heal these wounds
I'm black and blue
Maybe love
Love can make it right
It could heal me from inside
Maybe I
Maybe I can be
So much more more
Than I believed
