Sometimes I want to hurt,
Myself so I can feel,
The pain that unto others,
I so easily deal.

Sometimes I want to hurt,
Myself so I can know;
That this pain I feel,
Is no one's but my own

Sometimes I hold the razor,
The needle, or the blade
And want to cut until,
The light begins to fade;

Sometimes I want to hurt,
Myself so I can feel
And know once and for all,
That I will never heal.
But I'm too much of a coward.
