Carving beauty with a twist

Slashing another painful cut in my wrist

Hitting the wall in anger with my fist

Feeling pain is something I just can't resist





A pattern begins and an addiction grows

Wearing long sleeves so hopefully nobody knows

But day after day suspension becomes so clear

So I cry out in fustration and fear



I try to stop but find I am in way too deep

Cutting another scar on my wrist when I can't sleep

Wish it were easier to stop this pain

Have I really become selfish and vain



Afraid I will go too far and die

But I find I don't care, Life is just one big lie



I count the scars that I have to cover

To get the right number I have to count them over and over



I just wonder where this all began

Where, when, how and why

Why did I start something that now I can't end

No matter how hard I try



It ruins all the good in my life

All relationships are thrown away

Happiness never stasys for more than a day





My heart is in too much pain to be able to love

I push everyone I grow close to away



I am paranoid and angry

Just plain tired of being me

I just wish that for once I could be free
