Razor blades across my skin  

How long has it been

To bring you down to this

The blood drips

You think of all the frustration

Your mind gets away from it all

You find yourself laughing

And no one knows at all

For all they know

You jumped a fence

The last that you remember is getting scratched

Your lips tell the lies

But the ones who know

They know the cries

Of the one without hope

So they turn to you

Your eyes meet with a stare

How am I important to people who don’t care?

They take their breath and give you a shy

Smile that last for a real while

They stand to you

And hold out their hand

“It’s okay we’re on the same level, man.”

“So don’t turn away,

Take our hand

Because we’re here to help you take your stand.”

Against it all

You don’t have to anymore

We’re here to listen

And we hear you

So take our trust

Put it in your hands

And recover that heart that’s been beating unsteady

It may not purify it

From all its dread

But it can get that beat on the right track

And listen to us all

We’re here for you

Treat us like you so desperately wanted to.

Exactly like you
