My Band-Aid

by VannaLeen   Oct 1, 2006


Alcohol is my band-aid
Temporally sealing my wounds
Stopping the blood from flowing
Keeping me away from gloom

I know soon it will rub off
Leaving my pain to flow
Keeping my tears coming,
Even if they don't show

Time can't heal my wounds
The stitches always break
My wounds sting from the memories of my mistakes

I can't seal up my wounds
It's too much to take
So I'll unwrap a new band-aid,
And seal it in place

Alcohol is my band-aid
Temporally sealing my wounds
Stopping the blood from flowing
Keeping my away from gloom
