Open your eyes
You'll then see my cries
The words you won't hear
They're all right here
Written in the scars
On my arm and my heart
I have my cuts, caused by depression
My stomach still growls, caused by starvation
I've got this annoying voice in my mind
It's the reason I'm forced to hide
Denying all the words you typed
Take the tears that I have wiped
Because it's a lot worse than you know
My mind makes me put up a show
It has built a very thick wall
Because of the memories in that hall
More things continue to get shoved behind
Making room for my pain inside
Those cuts take that pain away
They make it easier for me to stay
But when I'm at home
My mind seems to roam
Down to the kitchen on the counter
The pain that I would have to encounter
The knives that could take away pain
The truth is that pain, it's hard to explain
I stay away, like I promised I would
Because that is what I really should
And for now I do promise to stay away
But I can't say the same for another day
