Razor Blades
Razor Blades
I tried and i promised
that i would do it no more
but the pain brings tears
right through that steel door
i threw away all the razor blades
but somehow i still found things to use today
i sit and i look at pictures from another time
i cry cause it hurts
he use to be mine
inside my body my soul still bleeds
all i want is to be free
the pain that comes
over floods my senses
the blood dripping down
my white skin
seems so senseless
i say that i don't
that i stopped so long ago
but in the moment of loneliness
i go
i do what i vowed i would never again
if only so i can feel something
for a split second
i tear at my chest
for my heart throbs in pain
i cry in secret
so no one sees my shame
the addiction that pulls at my body with in
the need to feel something
if only i could stop
if only i could see
but i still think
that life would be better without me
no one see's the hidden scars
no one see's me behind those bars
no one see's all the pain
because its all hidden behind a twisted smile on my face
not a soul hears my cries
no one understands how every day i die
sometimes i just need out
to release myself
do you know what its like
to be looked at in strife
to be cast out with blades
because you cut everyday
because your different
you have to play a game
do you know what its like
can you feel my shame??
