Im a stitch away from making it,
and a scar away from falling apart,
I fell apart,
the abrassions on my wrists,
where scratched over these lyrics,
they sting,
my skin is raw from the recent intursions,
no blood,
just raw skin,
they feel weird under my tear soaked sleave,
and as my social studies teacher droned on,
she practicly watched me do it,
but she did nothing,
but hand me a worksheet and walk away,
they are only scratches because im too scared,
to scared to make myself bleed,
I hate myself,
I hate my body,
I hate the school system,
all i have now,

are the killjoys.
