Invisible Bruises (feat. Xyra)

Lipstick covering tired eyes
Another fake “I’m fine” tonight
Everybody loves a strong girl
Till she disappears inside
Phone keeps buzzing, I let it die
Too exhausted to explain why
Been carrying oceans in my chest
With a smile they all romanticize
Funny how nobody notices
The strongest people scream the quietest
Invisible bruises
Under designer clothes
Everybody sees the glitter
Nobody sees the ghosts
I learned how to hide pain
Like it’s beautiful somehow
But invisible bruises
Still bleeding out
And the boys keep acting fearless
Like they never break alone
But some nights they drive for hours
Just to avoid going home
Everybody wants a fighter
Till the fighter needs saving too
Maybe we’re just lonely people
Trying not to come unglued
We don’t need perfect words
Just someone who stays gentle
Invisible bruises
Under expensive smiles
Everybody says “you’re glowing”
While we’re dying inside
We got so good at pretending
Even we believe the lie
But invisible bruises
Never fully hide
What if being strong too long
Is what’s killing us slowly?
What if healing starts the moment
We stop saying “I’m okay” automatically?
Maybe soft hearts aren’t weak
Maybe numb is the real disease
Maybe the kindest thing we do
Is letting people see us bleed
Invisible bruises
Don’t make us hard to love
Sometimes the most beautiful people
Need the most careful touch
And maybe being human
Means falling apart sometimes
Invisible bruises
Still deserve light
Everybody’s carrying something
Some of us just hide it better
