I've got my work cut out with you, you tore bits out of me
Your carpet burns and bruises blue, are there for all to see
But I can tell you've been through hell, finally wear it well, it's an accessory
It's time to change your uniform and hand it on to me, to me
And I dream one day I'll find the one who lives inside my mind
And they'll feel the same way soon, we've all been used
Days beautiful and bruised, days beautiful and bruised
And blame is not a one-way street, the widest avenue
But cosmic grief in my belly is how I will come to you
Between the lines I think you'll find lessons learned from values eyes, beauty can turn sour
So recognise through all the lies, the hero of the hour, of the hour
And I dream one day I'll find the one who lives inside my mind
And they'll feel the same way soon, we've all been used
Days beautiful and bruised, when there's nothing, nothing left to lose
Days beautiful and bruised, days beautiful and bruised
Days beautiful and bruised, days, days
