You don't notice
My swollen red eyes
You don't hear
My loud muffled cries

You're too busy
Laughing at my face
You're too busy
Calling me a big disgrace

And as I lay
In the cold bathtub
I wash away the hurt
With the razor I scrub

Over and over
I continue to clean
Because skin with no marks
Is skin with no gleam
