Count Your Bruises Songtext
von The Flatliners

From the echoed streets of The Mission
Where the night can save your life
To the rows of narrow corridors
Where the world looks nothing like-
Anything your eyes have ever seen in your entire life
San Francisco can be short and louder than the world at night
And the world exhales

And none of us can even stand still
Let it rain all day on our asshole parade
′Cause we're smiling still
Count your bruises one by one and laugh it off
Stick around down here with us


There′s unity in detachment
We are not on trial
So let the time you spent on the back bench
Make the life you lived worthwhile
In a city blanketed with revolution, you can't live in denial

And none of us can even stand still
Let it rain all day on our asshole parade
'Cause we′re smiling still
Count your bruises one by one and laugh it off
Stick around down here with us

(Hey, hey) don′t go living life inside those quotations
(Hey, hey) look to your friends for your inspiration
(Hey, hey) Chicago rooftops will take me away from the ugly city
By the 405 where every palm tree dies, and the world is burning alive

And none of us can even stand still
Let it rain all day on our asshole parade
'Cause we′re smiling still
Count your bruises one by one and laugh it off
And stick around down here with us

Count your bruises one by one and laugh it off
Count your bruises one by one and laugh it off
