About Bruises

On “Bruises,” Reneé Rapp reveals her constant sensitive feelings, which she wishes weren’t so strong at 22. Throughout the song, she likens her sensitivity to bruising and acetone; skin is sensitive and can be easily bruised, and acetone is easily flammable. “Bruises” marked the first closing track of Reneé’s where she openly expresses her vulnerability at a specific age. The second time was of the release of “23,” on her debut studio album Snow Angel, where she wishes that she didn’t overthink excessively anymore. .

Bruises Lyrics

[00:11.01] I've spent 22 years of my life
[00:15.09] Trying not to freak out, trying not to be needy
[00:21.23] I go through six different moods at a time
[00:25.22] I'm happy, then losing my mind
[00:28.27] Go transition to crazy
[00:30.82] It's not fair, I've got acetone for veins
[00:36.13] I'm so sensitive, just one touch and I feel pain
[00:42.14] All my friends make sweet fun of me
[00:45.83] I guess it's funny, but the truth's I bruise easily
[00:51.09] And sure I'm down to be the joke, metaphorically though
[00:56.39] You could flip me inside out and they would show
[00:59.29] Black, purple, and green, yeah, I bruise easily
[01:04.16] I've spent 365 days, and 52 weeks in my brain
[01:10.86] Going over the same thing, that girl said, "When we were in fourth grade"
[01:14.73] I take everything personally
[01:18.34] I've always hated that about me
[01:21.54] I've tried to be cool and chill but
[01:24.12] It's not fair, I've got acetone for veins
[01:29.17] I'm so sensitive, just one touch and I feel pain
[01:35.28] All my friends make sweet fun of me
[01:38.80] I guess it's funny, but the truth's I bruise easily
[01:44.24] And sure I'm down to be the joke, metaphorically though
[01:49.20] You could flip me inside out and they would show
[01:52.47] Black, purple, and green, yeah, I bruise easily
[01:58.46] (I bruise, I bruise easily)
[02:03.67] (Black, purple, and green, green, help me, I)
[02:08.97] (I bruise, I bruise easily)
[02:14.34] (Please, don't fucking swing, it hurts me)
[02:17.80] All my friends make sweet fun of me
[02:22.73] But the truth's I bruise easily
[02:26.80] Sure, I'm down to be the joke, metaphorically though
[02:31.72] You could flip me inside out and they would show
[02:34.83] Black, purple, and green, yeah, I bruise easily
[02:38.22]
