When I came up with the title, I just had to write this song.

Lyrics:

The sky is dark
The clouds are grey
And there ain't nothin', nothin' to smile for today
I'm torn apart
And my heart is beaten... black and blue

You let me go
Love still broken
Heart unmended, too many things unspoken
I want you here
'Cuz I feel beaten... black and blue

Now my soul is cryin'
You and all your lyin'
Will end me
Pains just ain't healin'
Tears keep on repeatin'
Can't forget forget you leavin'
Didn' even give a reason
To hurt me

The stars seem dim
I tried so hard
To share my love, when I held you in my arms
Each moment we shared
Yet you ran scared, and left me... black and blue

The shattered glass
Of our love's past
Dashed against the wall, an' left in ash
A valentine
Of love gone blind, colored... black and blue

(repeat first verse)
