Crimson lines

Subtle signs

Let the knife kiss

“I deserve this”

Silver tip cuts into flesh

Stinging, bleeding wounds are fresh

Make sure to draw out the pain

As you look into the rain

Ruby drops fall to the floor

Just make sure to close the door

Most people would slit their arm

But they’ll know that you self harm

So, instead, you cut your thigh

Not caring if you live or die

Every night, another slice

Every night, you roll the dice

On the carpet, blood leaves stains

A little less flows through your veins

Your anger shows up on your skin

And you don’t care if it’s a sin

You know you deserve the pain

Though they might think that you’re insane

They ask what you could have to gain

It’s that or stand and face a train
