Butterfly Blade

oh butterfly how you used to be my friend at night
 watching you fluttter as blood took over my sight
 a little winged creature so innocent and sweet 
 nobody knew it was my skin you used to meet

 butterfly kisses on my skin so nice and cool
 red ink flowing on the ground into its own pool
 oh how we loved to cry
 when morning came and we had to say good bey
 a day without you made my heart ache
 walking around with a smile i hade to fake

 butterfly how could your spell be so strong
 for i was hooked on you for way to long

 my arms i have to show for my regret
 as i used to live my life in red
 as i broke off your wings your image did fade
 all that was left was the truth all along, you were just a blade

The Thought of Death

Death is laughging in her cry
 No time for tears to dry
 An underlying sense of counting down
 The blackend life
 Her baggy eye caught a glint of the knife
 Its death again
 He's always here
 Watchinng waiting hear the stare
 A half painted face so incomplete
 A stranger in the mirror for me to meet
 Another day has past
 My thoughts are forever here to last...

The Only Thing I Get To Keep

Its painful to live to even breathe
 I want to die but you won’t let me leave
 My depression grows deeper pulling me apart
 The scars on my arms is so much deeper in my heart
 I still remember him on me that day
 I asked him why but he had nothing to say
 That was not the first time, it happened 8times before
 I hate men using me, I can’t take it anymore 
 No one knows that im going to die
 I tell you im all right, what a perfect lie
 I feel like crying but I know id get no where
 I wish you would leave I hate it when you care
 Pain doesn’t hurt when its all you’ve ever felt 
 My heart is the coldest ice unable to melt
 I wanted to say good bye but theres no time
 For deaths walls I already climb
 I held the knife so close it went so deep
 The scar is the only thing I get to keep….
