I understand
I understand
You’ve never held that knife in your hand
to need the pain it can cause
And for your thoughts to stop
I understand
It’s hard to comprehend
It’s hard to see
but I’m still me
just with a few scratches
that match how I feel
I understand
I don’t want to die
and I don’t want attention
but I can’t stop that impression
I understand
it doesn’t affect you
but it’s still true
do I dare
To ask
If you care
I don’t understand
