I Never

I never felt alive
Before you
I always sat alone in my dark room
With the razor blade and imagery friends
As the only friends that cared
I would cry
I used to cut so much that it didn't hurt enough
It made me go crazy with hate
Hate for myself and everyone around me
Until you
I never had been in love
Then you came into my life
I used to say the words but I knew they were not real
But I know when you say them to me it is
And I will always love you
Even if you hurt me
I never trusted
But I trust you
All the others had lied to me
I was a fool to believe
Fell for all their lies
Then I told myself I would never trust
But now I know
I will never go back
