You don't seem to understand,
what I so clearly do
you tell me this is oh so wrong.
I tell you I need this,
to survive I must have this control
I need to remind myself.
I keep the word simple on my arm
It's the truth even if you cant accept it.
Keep denying this all you like.
You have no idea
I try to explain but you say it's bad
I know it's only temporary.
You worry I may one day slip up
find myself cutting to deep
You need to know everythings fine.
You cannot accept this
my coping method for all this
keep in mind that people cope in worse ways than this.
Just try and understand
without this I would be suffering
you may not understand why I need to remind myself this way
but know the word weeps on my arm
Alone do I feel every day
Alone is what my life is destined to be
so Alone is what I remind myself
Alone speaks out in red tears upon my weary soul.
