It's funny to me how papercuts,
Or stubbing my toe,
Hurt like hell.
But then a knife to my skin isn't even noticable.
Instead of pain,
I'm filled with a euphoric feeling.
My mind is filled with ease.
It feels so good that I do it again.
One cut turns to two.
Two cuts turn to four.
And four turns to eight.
If everyone around me is happy,
Why can't I be happy too?
Eventually it becomes addicting.
It becomes a want.
A need.
Something I crave for.
It's like a high where everything in the world is okay for just minute.
A minute where I might actually sleep calmly.
It's weird how something so evil can feel so good.
