Guilty
Why'd I try
It made things harder
More pain to hide
It was stupidity
Trying to take my own life
Numb
Gave the razor a whirl
The pressure on my skin
The cut
The blood
It all made me feel
But I didn't like the touch
The sharpness
The marks
The scars
That still remind me today
Of all my mistakes
Low
Wanted the high
Got offered some weed
But I didn't try
One thing
I won't do in my life
One thing
I know is a waste of time
Sad
Wanted out
Wanted to die
To give up
Not try
Unbearable
Grabbed the bottle
Smallowed one at a time
Planning to go on
Until I was gone
But a hand on my arm "saved me"
Took the bottle away
"Didn't take any"
What a lie
But they believed me
Cautious
Dangerous thoughts
Cut! Cut!
Swallow! Swallow!
Burn! Burn!
Won't give in this time
I have control of my life
Right?

So basicall....i could lie tell you this just came to me, but I'm not going to. Some of this is true and some of it is not true. The feeling at the beginning of each stanza though apply to me....
