Unfamilar Faces

I see these faces every where I turn
They tell me to do things
They say to cut, hurt and kill
So I cut and hurt only myself

I don't like these faces in my head
They like to laugh and haunt me at night
The visions to in to fright

Then my friend stops and says to me
"Alexz, They're not real. They don't have to control your life like this."
I stop and think
Yes it's true 
Then they're faces disappear
