When you go to shave your legs, slit your wrists with razor blades

I used to know this boy
who took notes in a book
but he ripped out all the pages
 before i got a look
at all the words he scribbled
at all the lines he filled
but the ink stains on his fingers
told me he was skilled
at capturing a feeling
that most of us just miss
the simple pain of living
with goodbyes on our lips
i found one of the pages
crumpled by her bed
and this is how it read
 it's not like i am weak
or that i don't know how to leave
it's just that every time you cheat
you bring me closer to defeat
until there's nothing left to love
until there's nothing left to say
i know that you need help
but even i can't save you from yourself
