From across the room they call you

From their locked up box

You old friends they haunt you

from the past you have not forgot

you give into temptation

and remove them from their box

you hold them in your fingers, a feeling to horrible

the silver of the blades cold like you remember

just once you say, but you know thats just a lie

you slice about your arm once more

like the days when you wanted to die

you give into temptation

and let the blood run down your arm

how can such cold metal, bring something that is so warm

now your old scars they scream

open me once more

one cut turns 20, but still you want more.

reality turns hazy, and now youre in a daze

you gave into temptation

and now you must pay

your a bloody mess, but you just cant seem to stop

and now you remember why, you had locked them in a box

20 turned to 40 and you know you must stop

but there is something powerful about these silver friends

once you picl them up, it seems you cant put them down again

look what youve done

you have really messed up

put your friends away now, before its to late

you gave into temptation and now you must pay.
