My heart is bleeding
the cuts are ripping
glass is shattering
my blood is dripping

just let me bleed
all the pain away
just let me need
to feel this way

its the only thing
ive ever had
the pain you bring
its hurts so bad

----------------------------------------------

Life is so great at the moment
Each day full of misery
From dawn till dusk I just can't wait
To cry myself asleep

I wake up at the crack of dawn
Wishing I was dead
Trying to cover the cuts on my arms
And the pain in my head

Then it's off to my favourite hell
To be put down and teased
To be mutilated and tortured
Until I wanna fall to my knees

Now heres the best part of my day
Riding down the hills
Beside the constant glares and scowls
This is my biggest thrill

Now that my thrill is at an end
I crawl into my cave
The torture and punishment go on
Over paperwork I slave

Next its into the bedroom
Which I start to slit
I slit with a rusty knife
Up and Down my wrists

I cry myself to sleep
And try not to think about the next day
Because I know it will be perfect
Like every other day

---------------------------------------

I wanted everyone to understand
How hard it is to give up on
The one thing that's makes you feel better
I hate how they all say it's wrong

But I guess the idea of self-harm
Is unthinkable for people who've never been there
So they yell and shout saying it's selfish
And we run off cos we think they don't care

If only they knew how much we bleed
How we cry ourselves to sleep
And the only way we can take our mind of it
Is to cut, and cut deep

Pull my sleeves down to cover the scars
Wallow in guilt in shame that it's gone this far
If only somebody had hugged me and said they loved me
But that's not the way people are

I guess it's hard for them to see
And parents feel they failed us somehow
It's easier for them to shout
To cover the guilt they feel now

The sad thing is so many kids
End up feeling cutting is the only way
It's a solution, if only temporary
Because for a few seconds, every thing's okay

And if there were a better choice
Some other way to make myself feel good
I'd take it, grab it with both hands
It doesn't help not being understood

My parents never speak about love
Like it's a subject only on TV
Other kids have other reasons
But it's lack of love that's got me
