Just a cut

Just a scratch 

"What's that mark?"

"Just a cat"

Just an excuse 

Just another lie

"What's with all the bracelets?"

"Just a fashion, why?"

Just a tear

Just a scream 

"Why are you crying?"

"Just a bad dream"

But it's not just a cut

Or a tear or a lie

It's always just "one more"

Until you die...
