In that someone, I keep seeking for me,
In that someone, I look for traces of me,
I found her there, standing so near me,
As I looked in the mirror, right in front of me...

I looked at her eyes staring back at me,
I searched for the words she tried to tell to me,
I saw a furtive look in her eyes beseeching me,
Pleading with me, 'At least you understand me"...

I tried to reach out to her, she moved away from me,
I tried to console her, she just stared at me,
I knew she needed me, as much I needed her,
Till I see a look of peace, happiness smiling back at me....
I love you
baby
like the East does the West,
like the morning does the evening,
like the Sun does the moon
and the curse does the boon.
Why can't they meet? Oh,
why
can't they do?

As I walk alone in a sea of people
Drowning in colors and in sound
I can think of myself and know
Self Harm Is Not An Option

As I scream as loud as I can
And all that comes fourth is silence
I can think of myself and know
Self Harm Is Not An Option

As I struggle to find my place
Slipping on people and on words
I can think of myself and know
Self Harm Is Not An Option

But here I lay on the bathroom floor
As all the crimson floods
The Drowning, Screaming, and Struggling stops
And all I know is
Self Harm Is The Only Option

Hear me
I promise I'm loud
I'm yelling
Screaming even
Can you hear me?
I'm screaming to you
Do you want to hear me?
I want to be heard
To be valued
Will you ever hear me?
I'm trying to tell you
Are you deaf?

The most depressed person
Seems to be the happiest
Simply
Because
They don't want anyone sad
Like them

You hurt me
So im sweet

You killed me
So ill save you

You hate me
And all I can do is love you

You could care less
I care too much

And that's how we work
