i pulled the bandaid from the box
and tried to place it over
the cracks in my heart
but it didn't seem to stick

i tried to cover the large hole
right in the center of my chest
but the bandaid seemed to
just slip off as if it wasn't meant to fix me

i would never do anything to hurt you
but you took my heart and used it
as your own personal punching bag
leaving me with wounds that will
take too long to heal
