Writers and cutters are so much alike
Even much so it is somewhat a fright
Cutters with blades upon skin
Writers with pen upon paper
The skin upon their arms
Destroyed by the razors edge
Mistaking pain for ecstasy
Once more in the night
The pen upon paper is a writers best friend
Paper sees emotion
That lies within the heart
It will take the pain
The blood is ink
The mistakes are scars
Writers and cutters seem so different
But yet we are like brothers
Whether scares on skin or on paper
We always meet in the middle
