When I saw you were reacting to Lewis Capaldi, my heart beat hard as this is a new jump in moving to mainstream artists. This is one of my favourite artists. He is a Scottish singer-songwriter and with great fame. I welcome you featuring such types of artists instead of strictly Christian CCM artists. Interestingly "Bruises" was his first majour international hit. Even bigger hits by him include "Grace", "Someone You Loved", "Hold Me While You Wait" and "Before You Go"
That honest laugh Erika gave at, "and I'm tired of being so exhausted" was telling. Some of us have been there, too. Along with a partner because they're not all bad, they're probably not bad at all. They're just wrong for you. You know it in your soul.
Because having the bruising from life reminds him that he’s been cleansed from His water, he’s grown. Crushing, diamonds, etc. As it’s said, one can’t have a testimony without the test. Growth. Healing.
From personal experience after a breakup, I take the bruises line as meaning something along these lines: The breakup hurt really, REALLY badly, but you still love the person and want them back more than anything even if they've completely left you behind. You don't want to lose the bruises because that's the only way to experience them now that they're gone, so you stick to the only way you can feel them even if its not healthy. It is the worst feeling in the world, but you just don't want to get over the person no matter how much they hurt you
Many artists tackle spiritual issues, even if not strictly Christian. But they feel soooo Christian in context. So they are worthy of consideration. For example take Simon Webbe who is a member of the boy band Blue. In his solo songs, he has sang so deeply spiritual songs. For example "Grace" which has so many such feelings.
Imo the bruising is part of having to open up our heart more to the Lord, He uses our brokenness to increase our empathy and compassion for others and draw us closer to Him.

2 years late answer, but yes. This. I just went through this. It sucks.
