I've used up all my bandaids And lost them all My days compare to a rollercoaster's rise and fall Rather than the steady trail of a train Where are all my bandages? I cant find them I used them for my wounds But they disappeared The cuts burn And the bruises bleed I no longer care I have no bandages and no bandaids I can't complain The wounds are self-inflicted I relish the pain It's alright The wounds are a work of art Emotional Delusional Dysfunctionally comfortable But what good is a bandaid To a broken soul A painkiller To a faulty heart What good is a smile To hidden tears?

Bandages & Bandaids
I've used up all my bandaids And lost them all My days compare to a rollercoaster's rise and fall Rather than the steady trail of a train Where are all my bandages? I cant find them I used them for my wounds But they disappeared The cuts burn And the bruises bleed I no longer care I have no bandages and no bandaids I can't complain The wounds are self-inflicted I relish the pain It's alright The wounds are a work of art Emotional Delusional Dysfunctionally comfortable But what good is a bandaid To a broken soul A painkiller To a faulty heart What good is a smile To hidden tears?
