She's only seventeen, her whole life's ahead of her She hates school because the people are discredit her Her boyfriend tries to show that's not how it seems But every day she just gets lowered with her self esteem He lets her know that every night will have a brighter day She even tried to overdose and take her life away She's feeling hopeless there, just sitting down beside her bed And then he takes his hand and places it besides her head He tries to hold her but with every touch she still resists and then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists She's feeling numb, he tries to beg and plead and ask her why She says this way has she control of pain she feels inside He's asking her: "How long it's going since you felt this way because you got me here just feeling so **** helpless." She says: "It's been a while, I guess I needed better luck." And then he screams at her and tells her: "Baby never cut." Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own But listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone So baby don't cut, You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut

Helpless
She's only seventeen, her whole life's ahead of her She hates school because the people are discredit her Her boyfriend tries to show that's not how it seems But every day she just gets lowered with her self esteem He lets her know that every night will have a brighter day She even tried to overdose and take her life away She's feeling hopeless there, just sitting down beside her bed And then he takes his hand and places it besides her head He tries to hold her but with every touch she still resists and then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists She's feeling numb, he tries to beg and plead and ask her why She says this way has she control of pain she feels inside He's asking her: "How long it's going since you felt this way because you got me here just feeling so **** helpless." She says: "It's been a while, I guess I needed better luck." And then he screams at her and tells her: "Baby never cut." Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own But listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone So baby don't cut, You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut
