Hiding in shadow
With my only friend
Come down with me now -
Here's where it ends!
My one companion
My only love
The blade, the pain
The pleasure, the blood.
I am one who is broken and black,
If I wanted to I don't
Think I could find my way back.
Addiction to pain - my poison of choice
To cut away the numbness
As my nerve endings rejoice
Sensation!
At last - my hurt has a voice!
I cut you away
Cut your disease from my skin
Cut off all my hair
And I starve myself thin.
All of this time
Stuck in my head
Your sick twisted grin,
It fills me with dread
You rent all my innocence
And left me half dead -
Now no matter how I try
Can't cut you out of my head!
The scars you all see
The ones that stand out
Yes I made those ones
Want to know what they're about?
This is my therapy -
My form of self help
My silent screaming -
My heartfelt yelp!
How will I know the hurt
If it's something I can't see?
Pink scarring on pale skin
My silent, desperate plea.
