Blades

Just one more I say
No one will notice
No one will care
Then I see my life start to fade

A cut to my wrist
A cut to my thigh 
Making a fist
While I start to cry

No one cares
Nobody's here
It's just not fair
Why do I have to live in fear

All I'm asking for is a friend
Someone I can trust
Someone to send the love 
That I try to send to others

But no one will accept me
Except my blades
They're always with me
They help me forget

So I take out my blades for another time
Watch the blood run down my wrist
Just for a moment I forget
But now I have the memories on my wrist
