What started as nicks Slowly turned into cuts Grabbed my jacket to hide them Hid my clothes stained with rust At first it was scissors I Upgraded to glass But the cuts were too shallow And the pain wouldn't last I found my first razor I was a little to bold Cut deeper than ever And my fingers ran cold I first called it "coping" Used it when I felt bad The deeper I made them The less I felt sad But now that I'm older I've come to realize It's more an addiction I even cut when I'm fine It's the legs that I stand on I'm the worm in its clutch So I'll continue to please it And hide clothes stained with rust
