Altho...
[Verse 1]
You shot an arrow right through my heart
And sewin' up the cuts you left's the hardest part
I'm not a hero, but I save myself
'Cause I keep a couple tricks under my belt
[Pre-Chorus]
I've got one to help me get to sleep
One to help me keep my sanity
One to stitch me up and stop the bleedin'
And I've got one to get me out of bed
And one more to help me just forget
One to numb the pain instead of healin'
[Chorus]
I'll just put another Band-Aid on another bullet hole
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keepin' me afloat
There's nowhere left to go
Oh, oh
[Post-Chorus]
And I know it's stupid, but it works just fine
Makeup on my bruises, but somehow I'm still alive
[Verse 2]
Fallin' feels like flyin', I don't hit the ground
I'm just DIY-ing, give it all that I got
[Pre-Chorus]
One to help me get to sleep
One to help me keep my sanity
One to stitch me up and stop the bleedin'
And I've got one to get me out of bed
And one more to help me just forget
One to numb the pain instead of healin'
[Chorus]
I'll just put another Band-Aid on another bullet hole
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keepin' me afloat
There's nowhere left to go
Oh, oh
[Post-Chorus]
And I know it's stupid, but it works just fine
Makeup on my bruises, but somehow I'm still alive
Yeah, I'm still alive
[Bridge]
You shot an arrow right through my heart
And sewin' up the cuts you left's the hardest part
[Chorus]
So I'll just put another Band-Aid on another bullet hole (Bullet hole)
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keepin' me afloat
There's nowhere left to go
Oh, oh
[Post-Chorus]
And I know it's stupid, but it works just fine (Just fine)
Makeup on my bruises, but somehow I'm still alive
Yeah, I'm still alive
Yeah, I'm still alive
