It's just something stupid I do Something that I assume is out of view Every time I get really depressed And sometimes when I get a little stressed I put a little mark on my arm A mark that represents self-harm It's nothing permanent it's only a highlighter But sometimes it does represent my old lighter However occasionally it's my old scissor In a way it's kinda like my own armor To keep me away from something I used to do But I swear its only two Dozen Okay maybe I lied but it's only a few Hundred Fine it might be more than that But there's no reason for us to have a chat I have a therapist So you don't have to get ****** I promise I'm still getting better It's not like I'm using an old dagger Or a rusty knife And hey I haven't taken my own life I swear no matter what I'll be okay I can keep the depression at bay Yes I'm still taking my meds No I'm not going to tell those boneheads There's no reason my parent's need to know It's not like they would give a Oh You think I'm being shallow Well that doesn't matter anyway It's not like you will want to stay No one does so don't feel bad Wait Why are you getting mad All I said was what I do Something that was kept out of view
