band-aid

dirty marks on her arms and legs
where band-aids hid all of her regrets.
as she smoked her last cigarette
she wondered if its worth the breath,
is he worth it at all?

teenagers kiss at food court in the mall.
they think they know what love is all about,
claiming the music some one els wrote
as a way to express those feelings no one els knows.
but they dont know what ive done for you.

we make these promises to get what we want
a bet  where we lose our biggest mess
and in the end what do i get,
other than withdraws and regret?

my heart is still  beating.
its set fire like never before.
know one knows what ive done for you.
apologies turn into "i love you"s
an every thing i thought id lost is right here, waiting.
and she asks herself "is it worth it still?"
is he worth it at all?

forget all the things that he has done to you;
lying and waiting in hospital rooms.
for all the serenades and lusty views
he says he still loves you.
is he worth it? is he worth it at all?

it doesnt matter what they say
live your life in your own stupid way.
close your eyes out and see with your mind.
life is nothing but opinions and lies,
truth is not even in your happiness
so just shut up and forget the rest.
because hes worth it.
