Casey - Bruise Lyrics






Six years ago, I developed a shake in my hands
As they carried the weight of a love
I was too young to understand
But had convinced myself I couldn't live without
Now the only reminders I have of a life
I no longer miss are my terrible cursive
And problems holding my cutlery right
When I sit at the table on family occasions

And I know my mother still worries from time to time
I guess after so long she's learning to realise
More often than not when I'm silent it means that I'm already sorry
For not speaking up, for not using my voice to talk about what I've been going through

And that's why I'm scared of you
Because even before I had chance to explain
You were tending to my wounds and soothing my aches
I never thought I'd feel comfort again

And I know what this is because my hands have stopped shaking
I hesitate to call it by name
Just in case that it gets taken away again
I know that it's love, but what if I'm not enough?

Because regardless of how soft the touch we still bruise and I break
When I when I think about how it must look to you
As I tremble and shake in the bed that we've only just started to make

    And problems holding my cutlery right

    Love from Russia <3

  32. O.... J....

    Thank you Casey for this.

  33. A.... ....

    It's funny how Casey seems to be always releasing a song that suits my current situation. When Love Is Not Enough came out I was dealing with a breakup from a really long relationship. Now I found someone new and this song fits so well again.

    As always, outstanding. Looking forward hearing the new album and see the guys live again.

  34. D.... W....

    Absolutely brilliant, once again... Wow.

  35. h.... ....

    This.Sounds.Awesome.

  36. K.... M....

    I dunno why but every time I listen to one of their new songs I initially don’t like it, but if I listen again it turns into my new favourite song from them haha

  37. P.... H....

    Ficou foda, isso me acalma.

  38. C.... H....

    The interquel of the teeth & darling saga

  39. �.... �....

    🎵🎶🎤👍👍

  40. R.... B....

    I've read comments about a tie to Bloom and this song, but I'm glad the reference is revisited. My interpretation is the/a man is suffering from alcoholism and the shaking in his hands are created from the withdraws/post-nerve shock from the numbing sensation sent to the brain. His mother knows his problem and he's too ashamed to speak of it, so he stays silent. This is obviously open to interpretation, but this is my case.

    R.... B....

    i'm pretty sure all the songs from the new album are completely about tom himself, bc afaik he has some kind of disease. but ofc i could be wrong

    R.... B....

    I think this is beautifull in casey. Because you can understand whole songs as you want. For you it can be about alcoholism, for you about Tome, for me about me and my love. Thank you casey

  41. L.... ....

    clikced because looked like vagany

  42. T.... C....

    Se acaban de convertir en mi banda favorita con esta canción. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

  43. P.... H....

    I can't wait to see them. Their latest songs found a way to my heart and I'm so stoked to see these guys live.

  63. i.... k....

    Casey ❤️

  64. R.... M....

    Holy. God. Fuck. I really don't know what to say. Blown away. God, I need a nap. My emotions have been drained.

  65. D.... F....

    I have been listening to Casey since their songs like Teeth or Fade and I must say, they are progressing terribly good. Everything they have ever put out has been so amazing. Can't even express my love towards them. Lyrics are wonderful, personal, deep, heartwrenching at times.. This authenticity, this honesty is what I love the most about their music. I hope one day I will get to see them live and perhaps talk to them a bit. Long live, long love Casey. <3

    D.... F....

    Dominik Fraňo same. Been here from the start.

    D.... F....

    Rip.... :((

    D.... F....

    Agreed they sit safely in my top 3 bands. They hit the feels hard and I've loved following their journey, even as painful as some of their songs can be. Love casey

  66. C.... L....

    😍😍😍 omg made my heart race faster and faster I almost felt the need to cry 😍😍

  67. j.... c....

    love it

  68. W.... W....

    we do not deserve Casey

  69. L.... D....

    Good song ☺☺

  70. G.... ....

    Sooo good as always 😌

  71. c.... ....

    Congrats to Casey, at least now I don't have to wait damn near a year after the album is released to legally get it in the states.

  72. g.... g....

    Show❤❤

  73. D.... ....

    Wow... I remember half years ago I heard their "Teeth" song and I really liked it. But I never listen to other songs by them. But this time I'm gonna listen to their other songs, because they seems a good band. Which songs or albums do you like the best by them? I just ask because I don't really know them and maybe you can recommend some great songs or maybe albums. Thanks for your answers and sorry for my English!

    D.... ....

    They have a lot of great songs. Truly. My favourite is by far a song called "Ceremony" , I recommend listening to their album Love Is Not Enough, it's amazing. Make sure to listen to all the singles they have released as well in form of videoclips. Songs like Hell, Darling, Fade, Little Bird etc. Cheers! :)

    D.... ....

    Dominik Fraňo Thank you! I'm gonna listen to them!

    D.... ....

    Teeth, fade(fav song) , darling are all great. Love is not enough is a great album dealing with depression and moving on from love. Sleep is a great song that hits you hard with depression.

  74. A.... ....

    In love already

  75. t.... k....

    любовь

  76. x.... ....

    Very soothing

  77. �.... �....

    это потрясающе, лучшая группа

  78. S.... ....

    Rise has had some good signs in recent weeks.

    Good job.

  79. T.... H....

    Lets hope they don't get turned into Rise Core.

    T.... H....

    Dean Cooper & The Small Town Boys I made the mistake of commenting something along the lines of this on Kublai Khan’s video for “The Hammer”. Rise doesn’t have that much influence over their artists anymore, not to mention if you pay attention to any of the social media from the band members you’ll know how strongly they feel against people making claims like that.

    T.... H....

    aeequs That's probably a good thing, got sick of all their bands sounding exactly the same. But nah, I don't use social media anymore, just reddit and this bad boy

    T.... H....

    They are also not fully on Rise, they just on Rise to sell records over in the US.

    T.... H....

    Even when Risecore was a thing, it wasn't because Rise made their bands sound this way. They just capitalized on what was popular and signed these types of bands.

  80. D.... B....

    Latinos ?👀

    D.... B....

    Balher. Desde méxico jeje

    D.... B....

    Panamá aquí🤘

  81. A.... O....

    Wow Casey, thank you very much !❤️

  82. T.... G....

    My boys signed to a major label 😍😍

    T.... G....

    Dreambound is also not a label. Just a couple of jerks who get popular off good bands’ music

    T.... G....

    Blair Davis so a record label?

    T.... G....

    Dreambound is not a label lmao, they are music promoters, just like BeheadingTheTraitor and Ghost Killer Entertainment. Artists pay them a fee to promote their music, and on occasion, they upload full album streams of said artists.

    T.... G....

    Jake you’re arrogant

    T.... G....

    Luis Moreno he’s talking about Dreambound not being a record label, not rise.

  83. J.... S....

    This is beautiful as always

  84. C.... N....

    uuuuh~
    Love it so much <3

  85. J.... E....

    This band is on a whole different level.

    J.... E....

    Jake Endoobie I like your profile picture

  86. m.... ....

    Casey is love.

  87. A.... L....

    Casey on Rise... so proud of this amazing band ♡

  88. Z.... ?....

    oh my god are they actually on fucking rise records now? sucks.

    Z.... ?....

    Zack ? Why?

    Z.... ?....

    Just to sell records in the US

  89. E.... L....

    This is by far, the deepest song I've heard.
    Casey never dissapoints.

  90. M.... ....

    Anyone notice the reference to ‘bloom’ with the lyric about his mum?

  91. B.... ....

    I'm legit crying... it's so good

  92. M.... M....

    cant describe my own feelings, casey can

  93. �.... �....

    This song is their best so far

  94. L.... ....

    You guys really know how to put emotions into a song. Great stuff

  95. J.... ....

    We don't deserve this

    J.... ....

    funny seeing you here haha

    J.... ....

    you know im around fam

  96. E.... ....

    Never a disappointment. Can't wait to see you guys in Manchester in April ❤
