tell me now
Or are you only teasing
I felt the cold hard facts of life
Five degrees from freezing
Does it amuse you to always hurt me so?
I try my best but it's not enough
Should I give up and let you?

What more is there to take from me?
here's nothing else to give you dear
There's nothing more I can lose
Except this heart shaped bruise

It will fade
from purple to violet
It will fade
just as the day dissolves to twilight

Tell me now
or am I only dreamiing?
You said that you'd be mine for life
And now you say you're leaving
If I could hold you once more before you go
When I approach you just lash out
Should I give up and let you?

What more is there to take from me?
There's nothing else to give you, dear
There's nothing more that I can lose
Accept this heart shaped bruise
It will fade from purple to violet
it will fade
