Black bruise smile (Acoustic)

from Little Red Kings by Little Red Kings

lyrics

I'll play the Jack of hearts and you can play the queen
Let's hope the joker keeps the king busy enough to leave
Seven years of bad luck when the mirror hit the ground
Let's hope it don't pay out when the king comes around

You try to leave and I'll try to understand
You try to leave and I'll try to understand

Black, I wore the only suit I own
Bruises. a badge of bravery you wore it with a
smile, they painted it one your face before they carried you away
Black, bruise smile.

You slide across the floor silently with grace
Elementary my friend the accused rests his case
Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in midday sun
But you never waited till the night until you tried to run.

And you tried to leave, and I'll try to understand
You try to leave and I'll try to understand

Black, I wore the only suit I own
Bruises. a badge of bravery you wore it with a
smile, they painted it one your face before they carried you away
Black, bruise smile.
