Bruised Apples

[Verse] In a corner of the room A lonely apple lies Bruised and battered Its dreams forgotten by the world outside Once so vibrant Its colors shining bright Now forsaken Tumbled into despair's night [Verse] Through the windowpane It watches the passing days Whispers of laughter Echoes of love Slowly fade away Neglected and discarded Like a wilting rose Its tears go unnoticed As it longs for someone to hold [Chorus] Oh The bruised apples hidden from view Wilting in silence Feeling so blue Underestimate their worth You've got it all wrong They still have sweetness to offer Their voices are strong [Verse] They were once the stars Shining bright Every head turn They stole the spotlight (spotlight) But as the days passed Their colors grew weak Fading into the background Feeling incomplete [Verse 2] Now they're on the verge Lost and forlorn Like a forgotten dream Left to be torn (torn) Once full of life Now destined for the end A bittersweet symphony of memories they send [Chorus] Oh The forgotten fruit No longer in their prime Caught in the shadows Running out of time (ooh-yeah) Once so vibrant Now cast aside Their faded memories Impossible to hide Now cast aside Their faded memories Impossible to hide [Verse] Lost in a world of shattered dreams We're holding on to what's not meant to be Bruised apples We tried to keep them sweet But the bruises run deep It's bittersweet [Verse] We both know it's time to walk away The love we had was once so strong But it frayed Our hearts are wounded Scars that won't fade Bruised apples Our love's gone astray [Chorus] Now cast aside Our memories worn thin Impossible to hide The pain deep within In the depths of our souls They'll forever reside Bruised apples A love that slowly died [Outro]
