Drag the knife across my skin

Watch it bleed now do it again

The thoughts are there

You just don’t care

This time they win

You cut again

It drips down your wrist

You clench your fist

Darkness falls

Put up those walls

Ah there it is

Release from the pain

What a frame of mind you’re in

Now how do you explain

the lines you made?
