I cut myself just yesterday
To prove I was right
To prove that I could do it just this once
And stop without a fight
I felt something inside me
When that blade slowly slit my skin
A feeling of pleasure, pain and security
That all rose from within
I finally found pain I could control
Pain that was up to me
Burning and cutting my skin
Then covering so no one can see
I don’t do it for attention
but I do it to stay sane
Most of all I do it to
Level out mental pain
So go ahead and tell me, That it’s wrong,
these things I do
I’m not sorry to say, I'm not going to change
No, not even for you
Now you’ll say stupid things
"You need help"
Well let me make it clear
I never needed help before
And I don’t need it now
