Melanie Martinez
Band-Aid (2014)
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
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 the dead body
Or raise the dead body of a girl who got shot down before

[Verse 2]
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)

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm trippin', trippin' on rocks
Cuttin' on my ankles, when will the blood stop?
Blue, blue knees
Fallin' for the next man who breathes
[Chorus]
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 (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I please
I'll rip you off when I bleed

[Verse 3]
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
(Over him, 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
(The next time it rains)

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm trippin', trippin' on rocks
Cuttin' on my ankles, when will the blood stop?
Blue, blue knees
Fallin' for the next man who breathes

[Chorus]
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 (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
You're just a band-aid recovery
I'll rip you off when I please
I'll rip you off when I bleed
