Just say "no" to the urge of my comfort

Folder: 
2004

sometimes I miss the destruction

sometimes I miss giving in

sometimes I miss the comfort

even though I know it is a sin



sometimes I miss staring at the wall

and letting my head bang into it

sometimes I miss the way it feels

sometimes I miss it just a little bit



sometimes I just want to do it again

just to remember what it feels like to me

I sit and tremble cause I know I got to fight it

or else the addiction will grow and I won't break free



I made a promise to you that I intend to keep

so I will fight even though sometimes I miss it so

I will not grab the weapon and I will back from the wall

when this urge to hurt myself comes I will stand and say "no"
