To Be Held and Repaired - Collaboration Piece w/ Amanda Hoppes



I'll be your bandaid
I'll help you heal
I'll cover your wounds
I'll make you feel real

I can wrap you up tightly with my love
Time cannot hold us back anymore
I hope what I offer will be enough
Because you're the one I live my life for

But you like to pick your scabs
To let them bleed
The scars don't scare you
Proof of the pain you believe you need

Feeling confined you break free
Time passes without waiting or pause
For you love has become
A fear instead of a cause

Reasons rummaged from your ravaged heart
Always seem to keep us apart
Still stars tell the story of our love shared
As dreams are where
You will always come with me
To be held and repaired
