Leaving Scars
You cut and you bleed
Why should it matter to me?
We have almost the same life
And still you go on about your strife.
You say you need to cut because you need to feel alive
But that is a vast lie.
I know why you do what you do
But if you want attention people will just give it to you.
Cutting leaves scars to remember
Do you remember what the first one was even for?
Do you remember what stoked the fire
That gave you this cutting desire?
End this ridiculous scheme
Because if you don’t
You mean nothing to me.
