My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been 
And I can't hide the marks, but it's not a negative thing 
So I let down my guard, drop my defences, down by my clothes 
I'm learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow 

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me 
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree 
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me 
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily 

I've found your finger prints on a glass of wine 
Do you know you're leaving them all over this heart of mine too 
But if I never take this leap of faith I'll never know 
So I'm learning to fall with no safety net to cushion the blow 

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me 
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree 
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me 
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily 

Anyone who, can touch you, can hurt you, or heal you 
Anyone who, can reach you, can love you, or leave you 

So be gentle 
So be gentle 
So be gentle 
So be gentle 

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me 
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree 
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me 
Underneath I bruise easily, 

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me 
There's a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree 
I bruise easily, can't scratch the surface without moving me 
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily 

I bruise easily 
I bruise easily
