Cuts





Just a few more cuts on my arm

Nothing major I am used to the harm

With each cut my sins are healed

It is getting harder to keep my scars concealed

To much stress riding on my shoulder

Before my blade my word was much colder

Those who know me still don’t understand my pain

In my situation they don’t see what is to gain

Don’t judge me by my words, if you don’t know me

It hurts so bad can’t you see?

Those who judge me force me to slice my skin

Because I feel dirty I release my sin

In my life I have lost all I treasured

Now my body is scarred, cuz pain in my pleasure

I know what you are thinking, but it is not my goal to die

And when I cut, all I want to do is cry

You don’t understand me, so don’t act like you do

We all release pain mine is just different than you

And since when is being different so wrong?

Some people pop pills or drink to get along

It is hypocrites like you, which drive me to harm

And that is why I cut my arm

Now you see the world through my eyes,

With my vision blurred, I break down and cry
