Don't bother her
She's hiding scars
Covering up her map
To self control
Etched in those
Little white lines
'
Don't distract her
She's concentrating hard
Trying to keep herself
Covered up
While we all
Watch from a distance
'
Don't catch her eye
She's mulling over memories
And you can see them reflected
They're enough
To give anyone
Nightmares
'
Don't talk to her
She didn't find her way
To self control
With her little white lines
And now she doesn't know
Not to bite the hand that feeds her
'
Don't get too close
She'll shatter
And leave little pieces of glass
All over your heart
On her way out
Without a whisper of goodbye
'
Don't tell her you love her
Keep your own secrets
Because she won't share hers
Even though you can see
And you've read
Her little white lines
