As i walk down the hall
My worries go away
Everything that upset me
All from one day

I slowly turn the doorknob
And gently push the door
My room is my world
It's what i live for

I slowly take off my clothes
And turn on a small light
I walk to my bed
And get ready for the night

I slip under the covers
And take out a book
About a girl who hates herself
And the way they all look

As the chapter ends
I slowly start to cry
The tears run like a flood
They never seem to dry

I take out the blade
And sob a little more
I know it's going to hurt
But that's what it's for

I roll up my sleeve
It hides all the cuts
I take the blade
This takes a lot of guts

My arms start to cry
With tears of crimson red
I made sure the tears stop
So they don't scar up my bed

I hold my arm tight
I try and hide the pain
I know it doesn't work
"Lord why am I so vain?"

I lay in the bed
Thinking of my ways
I realize they'll see the scars
Soon.. one of these days...
