Comfort me, guide me this time
Momma let go, I'm only far behind
Watch the scars, but you see that knife
In front of me, I thought of takin my life
I saw again, but fell back through
You've told me, I thought it wasn't true
Hate, pain, guilt, and lies
All another scene, but to see me cry
Fears, now I will always see
From watchin blood, watchin it bleed
Pain I didn't really feel
All this hurt I plan to kill
If I can't, then wish me luck
I'm one step closer to makin another cut
So another lie, I'll begin to tell
To hold back tears, when I'm told to go to hell
No turnin back, so no lettin go
But the scars, some don't know
Countin back, 1;2;3
On and on but it continues to bleed
Till it makes a puddle in my floor
And seein someone standing, in front of my door
Tears in their eyes
Tryin not to cry
Holding back pain
When life is just a game
Comfort me, guide me this time
Momma let go, I'm fallin more behind
Show me things, to me aren't real
Show me life, instead of things to kill
Teach me love, and not only hate
Teach me to trust, and not lose all of my fate
Some me honesty, build my life
Hide the blades, and the bloody knife
Hide the scars that show upon my wrists
Stop me from wonderin why did I do this
Is it too late, to turn back time
Because now to me, I'm lost within my mind
