I want to scream
I want to cry
And i hate to admit it
But i want to die

I want to stop this constant hurt
To stop the voices in my head
To never again get out of my bed
To stop cutting my skin

Like it's a paper
The blade a pen
But I'm an artist
And i can't quit

Every cut step closer
To finding my out work
And once i finish
The lines soon fade

Till white lines
Are all that remain
And if i make a mistake
I cut and cut

Till blood covers up
Anything that i made
And then I'll start over
Onto a clean state

And when the lines heal
I trace them sometimes
Remembering the story
The lays behind the each line.
