Ive tried to put it down

but it seems so hard

I'm addicted

I can't stop

I did it once 

now I can't stop

its not heathy

yes I know 

but its fun

makes me feel alive

because I'm dead inside

watching as it blossoms 

opens up and flows

drips down 

falls onto the floor

it stains the carpet 

just as it does my arms

it leaves a mark that won't leave

a scar 

a memory

I've tried to put it down

but its hard 

they tell me to stop

but I can't 

I'm addicted 

I won't stop 

it will always be there

in the back of my head

im untrustworthy 

you can't trust me 

I will end up doing it again 

I'm addicted 

I can't put it down
