I dare you to not hurt yourself

to not use self abuse to cure your pain

I dare you not to cut again

when you feel your going insane



I dare you to find another way

to deal with your hurt inside

I dare you to do something else

with the tears you've cried



I dare you to take a risk

and to promise a close friend

look them in the eyes and tell them

that you won't cut yourself again



I know that it will be hard

I've been there too

but it is what is best

it's doing whats good for you



so won't you try to start today

and right this minute put an end

to this self abuse you use

I dare you to not cut again
