I tried to find an outlet, a way to heal the pain

Screaming, crying, writing, nothing helped but to bleed

The rush from the blade, crimson dripping from my skin like rain

And now I'm ashamed, I'm scarred, unclean

But the scars on the outside, they will remind me 

They will remind me.

I'm constantly searching for something to make me feel anything

All I need is something to make me feel alive again

Because I'm empty inside, I feel like nothing

And no matter what I try, all I see is the end

But these scars I have inside, they will remind me

They will remimd me.

I battle with these demons everyday

All I wanted was something to heal this heart

To take away this suffering, this sorrow, this pain

This darkness inside that never seems to depart

And these scars on my heart will remind me

They will remind me.

I tried to fight it, to not let it win

To find a better way to deal

The word "selfish" carved into my skin

And I reopen the wounds everytime I start to heal

These scars under my sleeves will remind me

They will always remind me.

I can't heal, I can't cope

Every day is a battle and I can't seem to win

Every day I lose a little more hope

That everything will be okay again

This pain in my heart will always remind me

It will always remind me.

And still I can't let go.

And still I won't let go.

I'll just keep allowing myself to bleed.

Just stand back and watch me bleed.
