If Self Harm Was For Attention.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If self harm was for attention

We would do it in front of you

We wouldn't barricade the bedroom door

Lock the bathroom door

Cover it up with long sleeves

Or tons of bracelets full of beads

Do it places no one will think of looking

Look so ashamed

When you ask to see it

Be so socially aware of ourselves

Be laughing one second

Then silent the next

Keep everything from you...

If self harm was for 'attention'

Why didn't you notice

How sad I became

How much I hated myself

How I only cut to ease the pain

If self harm was for 'attention'

You sure as hell didn't pay attention

When I disapeared

And the only thing left behind

Was my name carved into stone.
