You feel like a tattoo
Not the burning into my skin effect,

But the constant feeling of something that you can't actually feel being there

I want to shave my head for the satisfaction of seeing my thoughts again

Not through my eyes but my brain
And I think if I didn't have hair id be less clouded

The feeling of dried blood on my knuckles
Has been the only constant thing in my life

I pick and I pick and I pick
I'm picking you out of my head now

I'm so afraid of the future, yes
But I'm more scared of my past so I'm running away

I have been smoking again
I haven't done that in awhile

It helps when I need a feeling
Just something between my lips

The burning of my lungs will always be better than the burning of my heart

I think I'm okay again
Or maybe I'm just fooling around again

I'm not sure where I'll be tomorrow
But I'm moving on today
