I never deserved to live this life
but I can cut it away with this knife
my scars wont show for long
so what I'm doing can't be wrong
it never hurts for any length of time
this pain that I feel inside
I keep a box of matches always with me
through the flames, all I can see
is what I have to go through everyday
but I know that I can cut it away
as the blood drips down my arm
it makes me feel whole, it makes me feel warm
Whenever life gets me down
my trusty blade is always around
I know it's bad, I know it hurts
but living my life without it is worse
I know that I'm a bad person, I know that I'm weak
but cutting myself gives me some sort of release
it is so hard to realize, so hard to say
but until I get better, I have to cut all my pain away
