I watch the blood drip down Entranced by the dark fluid They lie- the blood isn't a crimson It's a much darker shade More like a black tinted with red At least against my pale skin It fascinates me It should hurt more than it does Instead it doesn't hurt enough There isn't enough pain Not to numb out the pain inside Whoever said words can't hurt Knew nothing about life A sharp intake of breath The pains satisfying now It's nice to be the one in control of the pain To be the inflictor for a change For there to be a clear reason why it hurts I watch the tears of my life, my soul fall And the pain inside hurt a little less

Untitled on Pain #1
I watch the blood drip down Entranced by the dark fluid They lie- the blood isn't a crimson It's a much darker shade More like a black tinted with red At least against my pale skin It fascinates me It should hurt more than it does Instead it doesn't hurt enough There isn't enough pain Not to numb out the pain inside Whoever said words can't hurt Knew nothing about life A sharp intake of breath The pains satisfying now It's nice to be the one in control of the pain To be the inflictor for a change For there to be a clear reason why it hurts I watch the tears of my life, my soul fall And the pain inside hurt a little less
