Lyrics Bruised up Blues - Ruben Hultman

I was found bruised up
Fucked up, sleep deprived
And loveless, yeah

I found a house inside my head
There lived a man with a familiar face
He told me to change my ways

He had a leather jacket
He drank the blackest coffee
He told me "sit the fuck down
& Listen to my words" he said;

To sing the bruised up blues
You've got to listen to your father
'Cause fuck all of the others
With the bruised up blues
You've got to

Your melancholy melody
Won't give you a happy face
Distorting your heart
Won't tear down your walls
But if you sit the fuck down and
Listen to my words I said

To sing the bruised up blues
You've got to hold your brother close
When you're running through the storm
Because the bruised up blues
Is a lighthouse in the dark

Captain, we are sinking
Throw the barrels over board
Fire up those cannons and
Ditch the fucking liquor, kid
You're so much better than this

(Breathe, breathe, breathe
Count your bruises and
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Count your bruises and)

Bruised up blues
You have got to love your mama
And give her the whole world
'Cause she deserves it all
Painted in gold

To sing the bruised up blues
You've got to
Breathe
