Verse 1 Donβt whisper the truth like itβs some fragile thing I can feel the cut every time you hesitate You keep pulling slow like youβre doing me a favor But the longer you wait the deeper it gets Pre-Chorus Iβve had enough of the careful lies Chorus Rip the bandage off fast get it over with Donβt stand there shaking with your delicate hands Lift one edge donβt think twice No use picking at it just rip it off tonight 2x Verse 2 I see it in your eyes before the words come out like thunder rolling through a silent minds We both know the truth sitting under the skin So donβt make it slow let the hurt begin Pre-Chorus Iβd rather the sting than the waiting game Chorus Rip the bandage off fast get it over with Donβt stand there shaking with your delicate hands Lift one edge donβt think twice No use picking at it just rip it off tonight Bridge (half-time, gritty) Painβs just a moment dragging it out is worse Go on β tear it free and let it burn first Final Chorus Rip the bandage off fast let the blood run clean Better a sharp cut than a slow-burn scene Lift one edge look me in the eye No use picking at it just rip it off β goodbye
