I'm getting tempted
I want to cut so bad
Seeing the blood come out
Would make me feel whole
I hear that blade calling me
Wanting to cut my fragile skin
But I've been clean for 5 days
I can't just start up again
Because if I keep fighting
I know I'll win
But yet in the back of my mind
I want to run into that kitchen
Grab that sharp new blade
And just cut
Lay on the kitchen floor
And just watch in amazement
At the blood flowing out
And I'll sit there and squeeze
Squeeze the cuts
So more blood flows
Giving in would only make it worse
For me and for him
All I want to do is one
Just one cut
And then I'll stop
Just let me see the blood
F

Down my arm
One last time
