Olivia O'Brien - Bandaid On A Bullet Hole Lyrics

You shot an arrow
Right through my heart
And sewing up the cuts you left is the hardest part

I'm not a hero
But I save myself
Because I keep a couple tricks under my belt

I've got one to help me get to sleep
One to help me keep my sanity
One to stitch me up and the stop the bleeding
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 healing

I'll just put another
Bandaid on another bullet hole
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keeping me afloat
There's nowhere left to go (oh oh)
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)

Falling feels like flying
If I don't hit the ground
I'm just DIYing
Give it all that I've got

One to help me get to sleep
One to help me keep my sanity
One to stitch me up and the stop the bleeding
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 healing

I'll just put another
Bandaid on another bullet hole
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keeping me afloat
There's nowhere left to go (oh oh)
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)

You shot an arrow right through my heart
And sewing up the cuts you left is the hardest part

So I'll just put another
Bandaid on another bullet hole
Duct tape on another broken bone
Got one feather keeping me afloat
There's nowhere left to go (oh oh)
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)
Yeah I'm still alive
