Forever Sleeping
One cut, two cuts,
Three cuts, four...
Hang on tight,
Just one more...
Pain n' frustration,
Passing by....
At the expense of what?
A few scars on my thigh?
I look up n' pray,
For just one good day...
A need for approval n' unconditional love,
Please God, give me strength from above...
An unconditional need to bleed,
As I sit here crying
Just a need to believe,
I need to live, no need for lying...
