Emotional scars covered me
Life was always easy emotionally
I wanted to be like a rock
I wanted to be silent without a care
I hadn't learned to cherish the happy moments
I'd only dwell on what went wrong
If I could only find a way
I would turn my heart to stone
An Emotional band aide is what I need
Emotional first aid
To make me feel better
A little patch of comfort to cover me
Then the scars could melt away
And raw emotions would leave today
Maybe I'd want to sing
Remember without crying
Communicate with only reason and love
Live the moment, not dwell on what went wrong
Then my wounds would heal
And all my pain would be gone
An emotional band aide is what I need
Emotional first aid
To make me feel better
A little patch of comfort to cover me
The tincture of time
Doesn't heal fast enough for me
When I'm seeing it all emotionally
An emotional band aide is what I need
Emotional first aid
To make me feel better
A little patch of comfort to cover me
An emotional band aide
To repair the choices I have made
To make this ache fade away
So I can choose clearly today
