You say time heals all wounds
But flesh gets infected
Bacteria festers
Multiplies with every passing minute

I suppose things get worse
Before they can get better

Eventually the bacteria will die
Your blood will clot
Skin closing up
Leaving nothing but a scar
To remind you of the pain
Every time you get too close to love again

So yes, time heals all wounds
But at what cost?
