bandaids on bullet holes

freshly painted on smiles

patching up souls

with pure filtered sunshine

living the life

that she never dreamed

says she's doing alright

no matter what it seems

broken beyond fixin

mending hearts bustin' seams

her whiskey is mixed

with strangers and thieves

love gone a "rye"
