The paper I see, nothing but lined
I told myself you'd never mind
The joyful facade, I stay behind
I hide myself, before you find
the secret smile the blade cast
draw it over your skin at last
the pain will glide away as fast
I hurt myself so you can't
this empty shell, I cocoon
I stare at night, to the hopeless moon
I calm myself, it'll be over soon
I kill myself, before you do
