Listen please and pay attention,
what you are about to read is extremely different,
I try to tell people but they just won't listen,
so I ask you to give me your undivided attention,
I cut my wrists, my arms, and thighs,
so if you see my scars don't be surprised,
this doesn't I'm Emo or Gothic,
I describe myself as a little bit more different,
I tell you this because I want you to see,
I am not different I'm just unique,
so thank you so much for listening to my story,
but all I ask is that you don't worry.

I feel numb as the blade skates across my skin,
I thank God my pain is gone again,
and when I'm done I hide away,
in my room is where I wish  to stay,
I'm trapped in this room of darkness once more,
and all I have to do is walk through that door,
I want to get the help I need,
so to my mother I shall plead,
mom please take these razors away'
for home is where I wish to stay.

I tell the world I'm invincible
That the words they say don't lacerate my skin
That every time I look in the mirror
I am happy with who I am
What I am, who I've been.

I tell the world I'm invincible.
That I go to bed each night with happy dreams.
That every time I fall in love
I am content with loving them
Wanting them, them having me.

I tell the world I'm invincible.
That nothing in the world can hold me down
That every time you crush my walls
I'll build myself up
Never cry, never frown.

I know inside I'm not invincible.
But I tell myself to make it all okay
So every time I crumble at 3am
I'll move on from it
I'll make something from it, I'll grow, I'll change.

— The End —
