How am l ever gonna get my head screwed back on?
You chewed me up and spit me up and left me here all alone
Beat me up
Broke me down
Pieces of me scattered all around

I’m black and blue
Black and blue

How did I ever wind up here in a smokey hotel?
Me, I’m blinking through the curtains and I’m hurting like hell
I see the streets
I smell the rain
But I don’t fell a goddam thing but pain

I’m black and blue
Black and blue

And I close my eyes and I see you standing there
And I reach for you but you vanish in thin air
Couldn’t take the time to say goodbye
Ripped out my heart and left me here to die

I’m black and blue
Black and blue

So here I am starting down at the cold city lights
Just another pair of eyes in the darkness tonight
You took everything that I had to give
You even took away my will to live

I’m black and blue
Black and blue
