Open Wound

I was an open wound
When we were driving on the pike
You said nothing when I told you

I was an open wound
You were a band aid
You said nothing

You think that I'm a wave
But I'm undertow
Trying to explain
The way I sink deeper when you touch my hand

And I know that healing's not a straight line
But you keep saying I'll get better in time

Tied iron to my feet
Then watched as I
Sank down
Just to prove a point
Just to nail it right in

I was an open wound
Looking for a good time
A time that nobody could show me

I was an open wound
Looking for a good time
That nobody could show me

So I scream
Out the front window to the black
That I won't do it
I won't do it
I won't do it
