Self Harm

She cuts herself slowly
With every drink she takes
Cuts herself slowly
With every smile she fakes

She's hardly hurting
She's numbing mistakes
She's hardly earning
The blood she takes

Torn apart by her own two hands
Put together like glass from sand
Mutilated by the heart she shields
Reconstructed by the words they wield

She cuts herself slowly
With every drink she downs
You pray to your holy
She can't hear your sounds

She hardly hurting
She's numbing mistakes
She's hardly earning
The life she takes

Cut by your words
She's dying inside
Fixed by your praises
She's coming alive

Torn to shreds
By the life she hides
Empty beds
Turn to petty lies

She cuts herself slowly
With every drink she takes
Cuts herself slowly
With every smile she fakes

She hardly hurting
She's numbing mistakes
She's hardly earning
The hearts she breaks
