Letters On My Arm

you won’t listen to me, so i write to you on my arms. this one says i needed you and you weren’t there. this one says i’m bleeding but you don’t care. i wrote you this one out of despair, seemed like you always had to be at some other somewhere, and it hurts, because it’s me you’re dismissin’, with no time to listen, just need your attention, it’s your touch i’m missin’, look me in my eye, i know you see my letters, so why don’t i get a reply? i guess it’s worth it just to try, to get you to notice me just one more time, write you just one last line, but i’m runnin’ out of time ‘cause i’m runnin’ out of ink, needin’ more time to think, but i don’t have it, so i sign my last letter and address it to you, i hope this one gets through
