Skin Like Paper...

We mark our skin with felt tips

And pens

You would think we are just little kids

Writing notes to our friends

 We mark our skin with knives

And blades

You would think we are war heros

As our wounds start to fade

 But what you dont see is the pain

As the blood starts to dry

Making our legs and wrists feel like grain

 What you dont see is the struggle

We close ourselves

Just trying to hide from the trouble

 What you dont see is us

You just read our title

And see our covers

 Our papery white skin

Is just another piece of paper

So we will draw on it

And we will cut it

We will do anything to keep us from loving it...
