lyrics

Band Aid for a Bullet Wound

It’s the doubt that shakes my veins
That somewhere I missed the cue
Somewhere baby I made a mistake
and somewhere you did too

Even though I pass the blame
Does that make me untrue?
Even though you asked me to stay
You kept me guessing too

Is it fun when your gone?
With hands coming out from the dark
Well the kicks won’t come till I’m down
I’m just a time bomb coming through

There ain’t enough here to share my friend and
Other excuses too
Like when you said you were going away
So I said I was too

I’ve done my part I’d like to share
If you would care to hear
A redirection
A fairy tale
A band aid for a bullet wound

Is it fun when your gone?
With hands coming out from the dark
The kicks won’t come till I’m down
I’m just a time bomb coming through
It’s just a time bomb coming
