Bandage On My Shirt

I folded your hoodie twice

Left it on the chair

Your name still in my phone

Like you might answer there

I smile for the day

Then I bruise at night

Every little memory

Pulls the stitches tight

I tell myself, move on

But my chest won’t hear

Every step I take

Brings me back here

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

It keeps your shape

It keeps your shape

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

I’m wide awake

I’m still awake

The mirror caught me off guard

With your hand on my mind

I washed my face too hard

Still left some hurt behind

I laughed with my friends

But it felt too small

Like a bandage on a flood

Trying to cover it all

I tell myself, let go

But my chest says no

Every road I take

Leads back to your shadow

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

It keeps your shape

It keeps your shape

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

I’m wide awake

I’m still awake

If healing is a door

Then I can’t find the key

I’m standing in the hallway

With your name in me

Maybe time can talk

Maybe time can wait

But right now my whole body

Holds the ache

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

It keeps your shape

It keeps your shape

My body doesn’t want to heal the heart break

I’m wide awake

I’m still awake
