Slashing, dashing, The blade through my arm. Bleeding, bleeding, I don't know why it works like a charm. I wouldn't be surprised, If they'd be disgusted; They'd want myself revised, But I'm not just maladjusted. Wear that mask again, That mask that hid your pain with fakes; And try to clean the  blood-red  stain; And keep doing so until your sanity breaks. I guess that words keep me intact, Even just to reality, I hope. Though, with my demons, I made a pact; It's no use; I can't seem to mope.

Tantalizing Habit
Slashing, dashing, The blade through my arm. Bleeding, bleeding, I don't know why it works like a charm. I wouldn't be surprised, If they'd be disgusted; They'd want myself revised, But I'm not just maladjusted. Wear that mask again, That mask that hid your pain with fakes; And try to clean the  blood-red  stain; And keep doing so until your sanity breaks. I guess that words keep me intact, Even just to reality, I hope. Though, with my demons, I made a pact; It's no use; I can't seem to mope.
