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
