Bruises - Plain White T's

She tries to hide the bruises, she says it wasn’t him

But sometimes he looses his temper and again

He’ll come home, look for a fight

But she tells herself it’s alright

She hopes someday it’s alright

She doesn’t tell anybody, but everyone can tell

That there’s something she’s hiding, she hasn’t been herself

But she still goes out every night

And she tells herself it’s alright

She hopes someday it’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

She has to make excuses for all of this abuse

And it’s sad, the truth is she’s scared of what he’ll do

If she’d ever walk out of his life, so she tells herself it’s alright

She hopes someday it’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

She sits and she waits, it’s not getting any better

It’s never too late, but she knows it’s now or never

She’ll get up the strength to stand up to him tonight

'Cause she knows that it’s alright

It’s alright

She says today she’s leaving, she says she’s had enough

Sick of being mistreated, she knows that isn’t love

So tonight, she’s saying goodbye

And she tells herself it’s alright

Yeah, she knows she’s gonna make it tonight

Yeah, she’s finally going on with her life

And she knows that it’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

It’s alright

She sits and she waits, it’s not getting any better

It’s never too late, but she knows it’s now or never

She’ll get up the strength to stand up to him tonight

'Cause she knows that it’s alright
