Band-aids (blue knees)

Just 'cause I bought a band-aid
Doesn't mean I'm able to clean the scars
That run deeper than all my old demons that I keep under still water
Just 'cause you give me flowers
Doesn't cover up the smell of a dead body
Or raise the dead body of a girl who got shut down before

Just 'cause you crack the window
Doesn't mean I'm able to clear the air that made it hard to breathe before you came around here
Just 'cause you say you love me
Doesn't mean that I'm gonna look you in the eyes
Pretend to be surprised and say I love you back (love you back)

'Cause I'm tripping, tripping on rocks
Cuttin' on my ankles where I know the blood stops
Blue, blue knees
Fallin' for the next man who breathes

I need a band-aid recovery
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
You're just a band-aid on my knees
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I bleed

I need a band-aid recovery
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
You're just a band-aid on my knees
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I bleed

Just 'cause I'm coming over
Doesn't mean I'll be there when you wake up
'Cause coming over doesn't mean that I'm over him
Just 'cause you are my band-aid
Doesn't mean I want you to stick around 'cause rebounds get washed away
The next time it rains

'Cause I'm tripping, tripping on rocks
Cuttin' on my ankles where I know the blood stops
Blue, blue knees
Fallin' for the next man who breathes

I need a band-aid recovery
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
You're just a band-aid on my knees
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I bleed

I need a band-aid recovery
Don't get too close 'cause you're really nothing to me
You're just a band-aid on my knees
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I bleed
