Life is good, life is great. Always love and never hate. Break the rules, stand apart. Ignore your head and follow your heart

She's only 17, her whole life's ahead of her.
          She hates school because the people there discredit her.
          Her boyfriend tries to show her that's not how it seems.
          But everyday she just gets lowered with her self-esteem.
          He let's her know that every night will have a brighter day,
          She even tried to overdose and take her life away.
          She's feeling hopeless there just sitting down beside her bed,
          Then he takes his hand and places it beside her head.
          He tries to hold her but with every touch she still resists,
          And then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists,
          She's feeling numb, he tries to beg and plead and ask her, "Why?"
          She says this way she has control of the pain she feels inside.
          He's asking her, "How long it's going since you've felt this way?
          Because you got me here, just feeling so damn helpless."
          She says, "It's been a while. I guess I needed better luck."
          And then he screams at her and tells her, "Baby, never cut!"
          Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own,
          But listen, pretty lady, you don't have to be alone.
          So, baby, don't cut, baby, don't cut.
          You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut.
          I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end,
          You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend.
          But baby don't cut, baby don't cut.
          You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut.
          The next day at school she's feeling better than the day before.
          Even cracked a couple smiles as she walked the corridor.

Did I say something stupid?
          There goes one more mistake
          Do I bore you with my problems?
          Is that why you turn away?
          Do you know how hard I tried
          To become what you want me to be?
          Take me
          This is all that I've got
          This is all that I'm not
          All that I'll ever be
          I've got flaws, I've got faults
          Keep searching for your perfect heart
          It doesn't matter who you are
          We all have our scars
          We all have our scars
          You say don't act like a child
          But what if its a father I need?
          Its not like you don't know what you got yourself into
          Don't tell me I'm the one who's naive
          Do you know how hard I've tried
          To become who you want me to be?
          Take me
          This is all that I've got
          This is all that I'm not
          All that I'll ever be
          I've got flaws, I've got faults
          Keep searching for your perfect heart
          It doesn't matter who you are
          We all have our scars
          We all have our scars
          Come on, just let it go
          These are things you can't control
          Your expectations, your explanations
          Don't make sense to me
          You and your alternatives
          Don't send me to your therapists
          Deep down, I know what you mean
          And I'm not sure that's what I wanna be
          No
          Take me
          This is all that I've got
          This is all that I'm not
          All that I'll ever be
          I've got flaws, I've got faults
          Keep searching for your perfect heart
          It doesn't matter who you are
          We all have our scars
          We all have our scars
          Oh no no no
          Did I say something stupid
          There goes one more mistake
