The scars they shine so bright
What's the use, why try to fight
I hate myself I should die tonight
I shouldn't be here it's not right

Blades are red, my arms are too
I'm so awful not sure what to do
I need someone, not sure who
Someone to call to say I love you

All this I say, it is in the past
The bad thoughts I have don't usually last
Some people stay but most are gone fast
Not much here for me to cast

Not much good here I understand
I'm not that amazing not so grand
But I'll stick by you even when not planned
I'm loyal even if I am bland

I'll love you with every inch of my being
I'll show you yourself, that you are worth seeing
I really hope after you see me you won't be fleeing
For you your insecurity is something you should be freeing

So the past is the past and I shouldn't go back
I'm better now, I think, no longer under attack
I'm still afraid one day it'll all go black
I'll go back to my old ways and my stuff they will pack

One day I'll be all alone again
No more people, no more friends
I'm still afraid just as I was then
This will happen, not if but when

Now this all comes to a close
No more time, it just goes

I see them one last time and say hi
They don't know it I want to cry
This is the last time I will say goodbye
Tonight is the night that I die

Few seconds left I close my eyes
Blackness covers I let out few sighs
I think of those few with which I had ties
I drift off as my body dies
