I Hurt Myself

I hurt myself.

I put myself in situations where I will fall.
Situations where I won't and don't stand tall.
I surround myself with people that bring me down.
And at the end of the night my face wears a frown.

I hurt myself.

I do several things I know are wrong.
I don't want to try, I know I'm not strong.
God... this life is far too tough,
I tell myself I'm just not good enough.

I hurt myself.

I take a blade to my skin.
Who's kidding who.. we know who will win.
I'm done trying, this doesn't even fix it anymore.
So here I lay, blood pooling on the floor.

I hurt myself.

I hope my mom doesn't find me here,
Lifeless and dead, she'll fill with fear.
I hope she doesn't have to pick me up,
Her hands full of red, I don't think she'll hold up.

I hurt myself.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I did this to you.
But I was done and didn't know what else to do.
I hope life will be easier now,
For you, for everyone, you'll make it somehow.

I hurt myself.

I'm done.
Now you need to move on.
You're still here.
Even though I'm gone.
