from deep down within me it burns

i slash, i grab and i wrinkle

i wither, i toss and i turn

i grab, i drag and i bend it

i twist it, i beat it, it burns

i slice it, i torture it, kill me

i vomit, i cry and i yearn

i scream and i yell but i sense it

from deep down within me it burns

i shriek as i feel, then i numb it

by slashing it all the way through

over and over i watch it

cold blood running out, running blue

i drag it, i twist and i break it

till i can't take any more pain

from this knife edge that twists deep within me

ans steadily drives me insane.
