Breakdown of Lyrics

Instrumental (0-1:00)



My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been (0.58-1:04)
And I can’t hide the marks, but it’s not a negative thing (1:06-1:11)
So I let down my guard, drop my defenses, down by my clothes (1:12-1:18)
I’m learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow (1:19-1:25)

I’ve found your finger prints on a glass of wine (1:29-1:33)
Do you know you’re leaving them all over this heart of mine too (1:36-1:41)
But if I never take this leap of faith I’ll never know (1:42-1:48)
So I’m learning to fall with no safety net to cushion the blow (1:49-1:55)

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me (1:56-2:02)
There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree (2:03-2:10)
I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me (2:11-2:17)
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily (2:18-2:25)


My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been (2:27-2:32)
And I can’t hide the marks, but it’s not a negative thing (2:34-2:39)
But if I never take this leap of faith I’ll never know (2:41-2:47)
So I’m learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow (2:48-2:54)

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me (2:54-3:01)
There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree (3:02-3:08)
I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me (3:09-3:16)
Underneath I bruise easily, (3:17-3:20)

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me (3:24-3:30)
There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree (3:31-3:37)
I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me (3:38-3:45)
Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily (3:46-3:50)

I bruise easily (3:50-3:54)


I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me (3:54-4:00)
There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree (4:01-4:07)
I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me (4:08-4:14)
Underneath I bruise easily, (4:15-4:19)
I bruise easily (4:20-4:22)

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me (4:23-4:29)
There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree (4:30-4:36)
I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me (4:37-4:43)
Underneath I bruise easily, (4:44-4:48)
I bruise easily (4:49-4:51)

Instrumental (4:52-5:54)




Analysis of the lyric breakdown



Due to the fact we have chosen a remix within a remix finding the lyrics online were difficult and the words in this remix had been changed slightly so it was harder to work out the timings. As you can see there is around two minutes during the beginning and end of the song which we shall use for our flashbacks, as our video will be narrative it will help relate our beginning and end together as the same music in the beginning is repeated at the end.
