One Silver Astronaut
Текст песни Band-Aid For A Fracture

An honorarium is desperate for a name
She seeks and finds herself a worthy candidate
And we don't notice it but she is trembling
And we are watching from a distance

The diagnosis wasn't easy but proclaimed
Self medication as the order of the day
And we don't notice because we aren't listening
And we are keeping a safe distance

Don't ask me to give her a Band-Aid for a fracture
Sometimes it just feels like a Band-Aid for a fractured life

She fills her days and nights with business and now
She finds she cannot sit silently or still
And we don't notice that her cheek is glistening
And we are close but still there's distance

Don't ask me to give her a Band-Aid for a fracture
Sometimes it just feels like a Band-Aid for a fractured life

She's wasting away now
She's wasting away now
On the outside
On the outside
And on the inside
On the inside

Don't ask me to give her a Band-Aid for a fracture
Sometimes it just feels like a Band-Aid for a fractured life
